I moved a VM from North Europe to South Central US region and the move was successful, but the Azure spot property is gone now on the new VM. Also my extension and auto shutdown settings were gone, but I could change those. How do I set I get the Spot setting back?

After reading some posts it seems spot can't be edited and there is no way to set it up on a current VM. I ended up deleting the current one, creating a new one and swapping the disks. Very disappointed in Microsoft, I would have never imagined a simple move will lose the VM settings.
@Oana M - Thanks for trying out Azure Resource Mover. Appreciate your valuable feedback about your experience.
Azure Resource Mover currently doesn’t support move of Spot VMs across regions. The support for this is not currently planned yet in our roadmap (unless we see a strong customer demand for this use case in future).
However, you convert VM to spot VM. Please see link and steps below: Convert existing VM to azure-spot - Microsoft Q&A
