Azure learn Sandbox is getting stuck 99% creating file shares

Microsoft learn sandbox was working fine for the initial modules, but it seems like there is some issue now it stops at 99% when creating file share and doesn't give any error message or page. Tried all troubleshooting steps like clearing the cache, signing in from different browsers and refreshing the browser, unfortunately, nothing worked.

How can I resolve this issue?

    Hi Aishwarya,

    There is currently an issue with the sandbox for that module which is why it just shows 99% or some sort of error with retry button.

    To work around the issue, please open a new browser tab and navigate to below link:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/describe-azure-compute-networking-services/3-exercise-create-azure-virtual-machine

    Solve puzzle(s), review/accept permissions, etc., and wait for window on right side to show Welcome to Azure Cloud Shell. Next leave that tab open, and click on the exercise browser tab you were on and complete the instructions.

    I just tested and was able to follow the instructions in the exercise without any issue using above workaround. Even though it isn't part of exercise, I went ahead and created a virtual machine as well.

    Please give workaround a try and let me know your results.

    Please click Accept Answer and upvote if the above was helpful.

    Thanks.
