      I’m struggling with this one based on MS’s website and the answers provided. Perhaps this is an old question and the steps have changed?

      Actual answer based on MS’s website:

      Step 1: Convert to VHD
      Step 2: Upload to Azure
      Step 3: Create an instance from the VHD as the OS

      My best guess if you have to pick from these…
      Step 1: Convert to VHD
      Step 2: Upload to Azure
      Step 3: Create an instance
      step 4: register disk as OS

      No where on MS’s site does it reference “registering” a disk from what I can find. Sysprep can not be used to fill the 4th step since they specifically mention it must have sysvol folder and AD installed. Sysprep will remove AD.

    Well I think there is a typo.. You have to upload “something”.. It should read upload VHD or the disk..

    Sysprep is only used when you what to create a new Generalized disk, not mentioned here.

    It is correct (though poorly worded)

    Convert-VHD support vhdx files.
    From documentation:
    The Convert-VHD cmdlet converts a virtual hard disk file by copying the data from a source virtual hard disk file to a new virtual hard disk file of a specified format and version type. The format is determined by the file name extension of the specified files, either .vhdx or .vhd. Conversion is an offline operation; the virtual hard disk must not be attached when the operation is started.

      Sysprep is for adding a bunch of VMs from the same image. That is not the case here. Your answers are incorrect based on the link you provided.

      …
      If, instead, you want only to create one VM from one disk, you don’t have to use sysprep. In this situation, you can just create the VM from what is known as a specialized image.
