So I see this post: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/76638/is-it-possible-to-mine-cryptocurrency-in-azure.html
And tried to mine too. Installed NiceHash and.... Yeah if it keep opened it makes VM crash for some reason. But when some app opened in fullscreen it doesn't. What should I do to fix it?

Are you using VMWare Workstation VM running NiceHash on an Azure Virtual Machine or (since you added the label azure-vmware-solution) is NiceHash running on an Azure VMWare Solution private cloud host, causing the host to fail?

2021-06-04T09:14:15.593+00:00 @DenisKotov-6042 , If it is a Shutdown (deallocate) or Power Off (Stop) VM operation then you can check Activity Logs for the impacted VM in the timeframe of the issue. Monitoring patterns inside the Azure VMware Solution are similar to Azure VMs within the IaaS platform. For more information and how-tos, see Monitoring Azure VMs with Azure Monitor.

2021-06-04T09:15:14.783+00:00 @DenisKotov-6042, You should see the principal that initiated the deallocate or power off (stop) event as in the following illustration:
This should be able to point at what is shutting down the machine.
Additionally please check if there is an Auto-shutdown rule. You can check scheduled shut down on VMs as illustrated below.

2021-06-08T07:16:21.633+00:00 So, uh, there a problem. I don't use Microsoft Azure account or something. I connect to Microsoft Azure VM through Github project and ngrok tunnel. I don't control them. Welp, thanks for the tip!
