How to move a windows virtual machine from Hyper-V to Azure

I have a Windows VM on an on-premise Hyper-V server. How do I move this VM into Azure and run it there instead of on premise. I don't want replication. I just want to move the machine into Azure.

Thanks in advance

Please set me on the right path, not with a link to one of the 40 different methods for doing this but some actual typed out advice on how to do this.

Thanks in advance.

The link points to a Free Tool from Microsoft for exactly what you are looking for.

Is it the carbonite tool?

Carbonite is not working. It is not seeing the one machine I want to migrate, even though I'm running it on the very same host machine that the one VM I want to migrate is running on.

Can someone please help me with this. I'm under the gun to get this done and the link just isn't working for me.

Thanks in advance.

PS: I really don't ask all that much in Experts-Exchange... I really don't think I'm asking that much here. Just a little help.

Thanks in advance.

Does installing VEEAM backup and replication require a reboot? If so, I don't want to install it on the host machine, since I can't reboot that. Should I install it on a VM on the network?

Thanks.

Looks like the answer is yes to the VEEAM install reboot, since it requires .net 4.7.2 which I'm pretty sure will require a reboot. I"m glad I'm installing it on a VM

Very easy tool to use. Thank you very much for pointing me in this direction.
