I've been checking and re-checking my setup:
- In the Hyper-V server settings:
- My GPU shows up under Physical GPUs
- The Enhanced Session Mode Policy is enabled
- Enhanced Session Mode is checked
- In the VM
- The RemoteFX adapter is present
Both host and VM are running Windows 10 Pro, the host is running insider preview slow ring and the VM is running the Creators update. I can see the RemoteFX adapter in the device manager, the Remote Desktop service is enabled and authorized through the Firewall. I even went in the event viewer on the VM and confirmed the remote desktop service says it will use RemoteFX for connections.
Yet the Hyper-V Manager is not showing me the Connection Settings option when I select my VM. I could swear that used to work months ago but I've not tried using it since and that was probably several Windows updates ago…
What am I missing?

I ran into this issue also and I found that removing the RemoteFX 3D adapter from the VM will give you the connection settings that you are expecting to see. I am not sure why this is the case as you expect to have both enabled at the same time.
The following article, although it doesn't talk about this problem specifically does point to what led me to this solution
