I’ve accidentally disable Remote Desktop on a virtual machine and now was unable to access VM via RDP. In order for me to RDP, we can fix the rdp access by using VM Agent Access Extension.To do so, open Windows Azure Powershell
| Get-AzureVM |
Note:- Identify VM and Services name
| $labvm1 = get-azurevm –name lab-pwin10 –servicename lab-pwin10 |
To identify if the virtual machine has installed with VM Agent Extension, type
| $labvm1.vm.ProvisionGuestAgent |
The result should be “true” or you can view from dashboard
| Set-AzureVMAccessExtension –vm $labvm1 | Update-AzureVM |
The command ensure that RDP access is enabled and that the VM has a firewall rules that permit RDP access.
Finally restart virtual machine and that should do the trick and you will able to RDP into the VM
