I'm using the Google Cloud Console to create a new Windows VM. I've tried both Server 2008 and 2012. In either case I cannot log into the VM once it's up because it says I have an incorrect credentials.

I've read this article: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/operating-systems/windows#understand_auth

However, it doesn't seem clear to me how this works. Previously I simply copied the password during the create new instance process, and the username was the same as the GC project ID name. This time I tried the name approach (projectID name + password) using RDP and couldn't login. I then tried my own username + the copied password and it still doesn't work.

Again, I haven't lost a password. The instance is brand new, I copied the password from the setup process, and I'm still not able to connect via RDP. Is there another step that I'm missing? Or do I not have the correct username in place?

Any help is appreciated.

We recently changed the way users log into new Windows instances. All the details should be at https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/operating-systems/windows#log_into_a_windows_virtual_machine but please let me walk you through the steps.

Once you created a new Windows instance in the Developers console, please go into the new instance details page:

and then click "Create or reset Windows password".

You can now choose a local Windows username in the dialog [by default, this is your gmail without "@gmail.com"]

Click "Set" and wait until the new password is displayed to you.

Hope this helps. --Alex
