WSP 16 issues with Copy and Paste of text with hyperlinks between host & guest machines

I am running WSP 16 on my host machine with a W10P OS.  My guest VM has W10H OS.  The guest VM is connected to the network with a Bridged connection.

I can Cut, Copy and Paste text and transfer files back and forth between the machines with no issues.  The problem pops up when the text I am trying to transfer has hyperlinks.  The text transfers but the hyperlinks do not.

I can transfer hyperlinks from both Edge and Firefox to a MS Word document on the host machine with no issues.  I can transfer hyperlinks from both Edge and Firefox to a WPS Office document on the guest machine with no issues.  But machine to machine is a fail.

I really don't want to clutter up my guest VM with an office suite installation.  Is there a workaround in WSP, or am I stuck with WPS Office on my VM?

TIA for any help!
