Thank you for your feedback
You can log in to a Virtual Machine (VM) by using the credentials provide on the Resources tab in the lab environment. One the Resources tab, you will find a list of all VMs that are in the lab, along with a username and password for each VM.
Best Practices for Preventing Log In Issues
Test your login credentials before the class, or before you plan to complete the lab.
When TypeText is not available, always copy credentials from your Lab Instructions and paste into the VM or cloud window, instead of manually typing. This can help to prevent issues related to typos.
