Hello, @Paul Kang !

Issue: Why am I running into an error on step 2, az vm extension set?
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. The command az vm extension set on step 2 has had reports of failures recently that we've been investigating however they all appear to be resolved by restarting the sandbox. If you continue to see this error after restarting the sandbox, please let us know so we can continue to troubleshoot this.

Thank you again for your patience!
