title: 'Your credentials did not work' in MS Azure
body: <p>I just created an Azure VM using the Windows 8.1 image in the Marketplace. During the creation process I provided a username and password.</p>
  
  <p>After the VM has been created I press connect and try and login via MSTSC - using the credentials that I just entered (with a slash to remove the domain).</p>
  
  <p>But I keep getting 'Your credentials did not work'. What have I done wrong? This procedure has worked for me in the past.</p>
  
  <p>Furthermore, when I review the users of the VM through the portal, I only see 'Subscription admins' containing my Microsoft ID. I can't login using my Microsoft ID either.</p>
