There you have it! It’s a bit of a pain, but now you can RDP into a computer with your Azure AD credentials (aka, email address) to an Azure AD joined computer. Adding the dot slash (.\) at the beginning will save you some headache of having to add AzureAD\ to the beginning of your user name each time you try to log in.) Now you are ready to connect! Double click on the RDP file and fill in the dialog box.įor the user name field should be formatted as it only needs to be but there are some strange caching things that happen when the VM autolocks and you go to sign back in. Note that your file may have more or fewer lines in it than mine. Go to the very bottom of the list of parameters and add the following two lines: You’ll need to change the document type dropdown from Text Documents (.txt) to All Files (*).

Before I show you how to remote desktop to an Azure AD joined VM or computer, let me show the steps to join a computer to Azure AD. In order to access everything from our corporate network I have joined the computer using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). I can get to it from pretty much anywhere and it doesn’t matter what device I do or don’t have access to, I can always get to what I need and access the Microsoft network. Part of my workflow is running some of my daily activities on an Azure VM. I could be working at home one day, at a hotel working, on site at a customer office with no internet, on a plane.
