Easily connect to your Cloud PC
Open Microsoft Remote Desktop (or "Windows App" as they call it now), click the "+" button, and click Add PC.
(For Mac users, you can download it on https://apps.apple.com/us/app/microsoft-remote-desktop/id1295203466)
(Also you can view everything on mobile for monitoring purposes - https://www.google.com/search?q=microsoft+remote+desktop+mobile&oq=microsoft+remote+desktop+mobile)
Fill it out as follows:
"PC name" - Enter in your IP address of your cloud PC
"User Account"
click it, click add User account
type in the username the cloud provider gave you (usually administrator)
type in the password they gave you, press OK
"Friendly Name" - enter something like "Decoder Farmer"
Now connect to it, without having to type a password.
If you want to use it later and the window is still open, just click reconnect. Otherwise open Remote Desktop, and double click the PC.
You'll especially want to conenct to it via the desktop program (which offers copy/paste from your PC), vs connecting to it over the browser.
