Question

So i have created some vms on the azure portal but i have been unable to connect through rdp and i keep receiving this message. Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons: Overvi X

1. Remote access to the server is not enabled Activity
2. The remote computer is turned off Acces
3. The remote computer is not available on the network Tags Make sure that the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network and that remote access is enabled. I have deleted and recreated several vms but it keeps giving the same error even though my RDP is listed in inbound rule.
