Can't get winmove to move a window that is a virtual machine via hyper-v - (Moved)

[AkromMH]

I am writing a script that needs to activate then move a Virtual Machine (using Hyper-V) window. The WinActivate function works fine. The window in question is brought to focus when that function is executed. Then I try to use WinMove  to move the window. Even though the $success variable returns the $hWnd of the window (I would expect a zero if it didn't move the window), the window doesn't move. Then I try to use WinSetState to maximize the window without success. Same as with WinMove, $success returns the $hWnd of the window, not 0 and the window doesn't maximize.

If I change the code to activate a non VM window it works fine and does everything in the script.

Any ideas why the VM window won't move or resize via Autoit?
