I tried many tutorial in Google search, but all doesn't work. The screen still remain the original size and can not enlarge the windows size.
I installed dkms, epel-release, kernel-devel, kernel-headers and so many rpm packages.
guest OS: CentOS 6.10 64bit
host OS: Windows 10 64bit
Anyone know how to solve this issue, that would be grateful.
Many thanks again!
