Hello
I have create a Win10 VM machine for testing several Microsoft 365/Azure new features, but I'n not able to RDP connect to the vm using and Azure AD users.
I found this article,. Is it correct?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/devices/howto-vm-sign-in-azure-ad-windows

The vm has already been created. so I run this command, but I got an error:

PS Azure:\> az vm extension set --publisher Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory --name AADLoginForWindows --resource-group EG_TestRG --vm-name PCVI02  
  
Deployment failed. Correlation ID: 3cc311b1-5df5-43d6-8a54-43ceef1e157d. The handler for VM extension type 'Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory.AADLoginForWindows' has reported terminal failure for VM extension 'AADLoginForWindows' with error message: 'Install failed for plugin (name: Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory.AADLoginForWindows, version 0.4.1.0) with exception Command C:\Packages\Plugins\Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory.AADLoginForWindows\0.4.1.0\AADLoginForWindowsHandler.exe of Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory.AADLoginForWindows has exited with Exit code: -2145648572'.  
  
'Install handler failed for the extension. More information on troubleshooting is available at https://aka.ms/vmextensionwindowstroubleshoot'  

Furthermore the user I'm testing is using MFA. May somebody give me an help? Thank you

    In order to allow all Azure AD users in your Azure AD tenant to log into azure joined machines using RDP, you need to configure Remote Desktop settings as highlighted below:

    Once this is done, you can login by using AzureAD\UPN format i.e., AzureAD\username@your_tenant.onmicrosoft.com or AzureAD\username@your_verified_domain.com

    I got the same error when adding the extension to an existing VM.
    Solution was to activate the "system assigned identity" in VM settings.

    I can also reproduce this behaviour and have not found a solution for it.

    The article says you should try "curl https://login.microsoftonline.com/<TenantId>/ -D –". That call returns HTTP Status 404. All other commands are working (302 Found or 200 OK) correctly.

    Also "curl -H Metadata:true "http://169.254.169.254/metadata/identity/info?api-version=2018-02-01" returns the correct TenantId.
