title: Creating a new user on Azure VM that is not part of an Active Directory
body: <p>How do I create a new user that can login to my Azure VM as an administrator?  My top google search result mentions Active Directory.  This particular machine is not on a domain.  I tried creating the user under computer management and I get an unknown error and there is nothing helpful in the Event Viewer.</p>
  
  <p>I also tried adding a user from the Azure Portal under Access Control for my VM instance and see a message that reads "No Virtual Machines In This Subscription Can Be Assigned Access".</p>
