BigFix sees a VM with Windows 10 as a "server"

Hello all,
I was wondering why my VM is recognized as a “server” for BigFix.

It’s a VM with a clean Windows 10 ISO installed on it.

I believe that the Device Type property is evaluating the underlying hardware to determine that the virtual machine is running on a “server” host. To get the Console to display a different icon, and device type, you can use the client setting _BESClient_DeviceTypeOverride with a value of “Laptop” or “Desktop”, according to your expectations for this virtual machine.
