Console time does change.
This generally means a hard lockup to which a reboot may be necessary.

Cannot connect to VM
I built a windows 2012 r2 server. Now I cannot connect. RDP will not connect (Simply says connecting, then disconnected)
I can ping it, see open ports, etc. But RDP and HyperV console will not connect.
Sending CNTL-ALT-DEL (CNTL-ALT-END) doesnt do anything. Console time does change.

Did you enabled RDP on the server ? If not follow these steps to enable RDP on the server:
- On the device you want to connect to, select Start and then click the Settings icon on the left.
- Select the System group followed by the Remote Desktop item.
- Use the slider to enable Remote Desktop.
- It is also recommended to keep the PC awake and discoverable to facilitate connections. Click Show settings to enable.
- As needed, add users who can connect remotely by clicking Select users that can remotely access this PC.
- Members of the Administrators group automatically have access.
- Make note of the name of this PC under How to connect to this PC. You'll need this to configure the clients
Detailed steps over here - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-allow-access
Hope this helps.
