VPN establishment capability from a remote desktop is disabled - 2012R2 Hyper V

I'm not really asking a question just posting an answer I couldn't seem to find in any forum. I had this same error while running a Windows Hyper V VM in my home environment. The server is 2012R2 and the VM is Windows 8 I had been able to previously connect and tried other PCs and my mobile to confirm it wasn't an account login issue. I finally realized I had recently enable the "Enhanced Session" mode on my VM so I could use my dual monitor setup and audio. Once I disabled the "Enhanced Session" mode, I was able to connect no problem. Hope this helps other users having similar issues

Thanks for posting this!  I also found that once the Cisco client is connected to the VPN in the Hyper-V VM, then I could turn the "Enhanced Session" mode back on to use my additional monitors while the VPN is still connected.  (By the way, if it is helpful for anyone, the "Enhanced Session" mode setting is in the "View" menu of the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Connection window.)

Only for searching and indexing purposes, I want to specify that the exact Cisco AnyConnect error in a Windows 10 Hyper-V virtual machine is the following: "VPN establishment capability from a remote desktop is disabled.  A VPN connection will not be established."
