Ubuntu is installed to a VM Machine (Hyper-V), if I access Ubuntu via Hyper-V and open Ubuntu it can display it properly but when I open Ubuntu it shows only Trash and the whole screen is black.

The next Ubuntu (18.04) is supposed to make Xorg the default again with Wayland as an option. You can do a Google search and find a few articles on how to switch back. Here is the first one I found. https://itsfoss.com/switch-xorg-wayland/
