Answer: Use gcloud to create the VM and generate login credentials with `gcloud compute reset-windows-password`.
Option D is correct because `gcloud beta compute reset-windows-password` allows for the reset and retrieval of a password for a Windows VM, enabling RDP access. Option A is incorrect as service account credentials are not used for RDP. Option B is incorrect because metadata cannot provide RDP access credentials. Option C is incorrect since Google Account credentials cannot be used for RDP access to a Windows VM. For more details, refer to [Google Cloud documentation](https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/beta/compute/reset-windows-password).
