Ah, I see you were referring to a Windows VM, not the IDL VM.

I will add that my test of IDL VM was indeed running under a Windows VM (Parallels Desktop for Mac), where I have only recently (with PD version 12) had troubles with modifier keys, requiring Actions:Configure:Mouse and Keyboard:Optimize for Games to be set).
