Hello Jeremiah Otaru,

Welcome to the MS Q&A Forum.

It seems under the same learning sandbox you tried to create a VM with the different image and it wasn't allowed. (First successful deployment was a VM from the image Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Focal Fossa).

Could you please try to activate a new sandbox and deploy a new VM one more time?

Sincerely,

Olga Os.
