Hi profile avatar Richard Uraboro

It should be working just fine. The reason is due to the type of lab. Since it is about Installing Windows the virtual machine is powered off. You just need to turn it on. It will display a button to start the machine at the center of the screen or you can do it through the menu on the upper left by selecting the Lightning bolt > Power > Start Machine.

Hello Guys,

I have a question, Why when we complete the Lab, it does not show that it is completed. I mean it stayed unchecked.

Thank you

If that happens, close the lab window (once the lab is finished) and back to where the launch lab page click on the Next button and it should mark it complete.

I keep getting this error when I try to check my work at the end. Windows Server Desktop Experience is NOT installed.

Unable to execute script within virtual machine Lab27668262-Installing Windows Server 2016 (Desktop Experience). The credentials passed to PowerShell are invalid

To me, the instructions are not very clear on what we are supposed to do.

Hi profile avatar Terry Speights

The lab evaluation will check if you installed Windows Server Desktop Experience Standard or Datacenter. When doing the installation you will be asked to type a password for the administrator account and here is where you type Pa$$w0rd so the script can work and avoid that error.

I’ve done that a few times and its still giving me error codes for the installation of the Windows Server Desktop Experience Standard and for the Server Core. Im typing this password in: Pa$$wOrd, so is thta supposed to be a capital O or zero?

The capital O for the password is a Zero.

Also, note that the script will fail on the Server Core. You will need to only choose Desktop experience.
