Reset by using the Azure portal
Select your Windows VM and then select Reset password under Support + Troubleshooting. The Reset password window is displayed.
Select Reset password, enter a username and a password, and then select Update.
Try connecting to your VM again.

Yes, already tryed this. THis is the error message I receive every time:

VM has reported a failure when processing extension 'enablevmaccess'. Error message: "Cannot update Remote Desktop Connection settings for Administrator account. Error: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The password does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements.

--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] args)

at Microsoft.WindowsAzure.GuestAgent.Plugins.RemoteAccessAccountManager.AddOrUpdateRemoteUserAccount(String userName, SecureString password)
at Microsoft.WindowsAzure.GuestAgent.Plugins.JsonExtensions.VMAccess.VMAccessExtension.OnEnable()"

LE: I also uninstalled the VMAccess extension, but VM keeps installing back

Related to the error message the password you tried doesn't work:

The password does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements.

You should try a different password.
