Explanation

Guest tools (also called guest additions) are software packages installed inside a virtual machine that improve VM performance and enable deeper integration with the host OS. Examples include VMware Tools (for VMware), VirtualBox Guest Additions, and Hyper-V Integration Services. They provide features like: seamless mouse movement between host and guest, shared clipboard, drag-and-drop file sharing, time synchronization, and improved graphics/display drivers with dynamic screen resizing. USB pass-through allows the VM to access host USB devices but is not the primary enhancer of overall experience. A virtual NIC is already present by default in most VMs. Remote Desktop is a remote access protocol, not a VM integration tool.
