How to create an Ubuntu VM on Windows 10 using Quick Create
Windows 10 is not just a modern desktop operating system, and it also has some great IT Pro and Developer related features build in. One of them is client Hyper-V. This is the same hypervisor which powers virtualization in Windows Server and the Microsoft Azure datacenters. With Hyper-V, you can create virtual machines running on Windows 10, without the need for third-party software. You can not just run Windows virtual machines, and you can also run Linux virtual machines. In this blog post, I am going to show you how you can create an Ubuntu VM on Windows 10 using Hyper-V.

Issue Loading Microsoft Teams on Ubuntu 18.04
I'm trying to access Microsoft Teams desktop on Ubuntu 18.04 After installation of .deb file, I run "teams" command and two window start, Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Teams Preview. One is blank and the other I cannot open. Any ideas about how to fix this, and use Teams desktop on Ubuntu? (My main aim is to edit xlsx files, but you can't do this in the browser) (I can add my log if that is helpful)Lesson Learned #269: Unable to connect - Is unavailable or does not exist - Connection Time out

Microsoft Teams for Ubuntu 20.04 will not start
I am trying to get the official MS Teams application to run on my Ubuntu 20.04 machine. No matter how I install it, it will not display any sort of window when ran normally (i.e. clicking the icon in Applications, running teams if installed with apt, or running 'snap run teams' if installed with snap). When I run snap run teams, I get this error: 2022/02/18 10:15:43.002794 cmd_run.go:1039: WARNING: cannot start document portal: Expected portal at "/run/user/197001104/doc", got "/home/username/.cache/doc" When installed with apt and I run 'teams', I get no output and the process ends immediately. The only way I am ever able to get a window to display is if I install with snap, 'snap install teams', then run it with 'snap run --trace-exec teams'. Then it works as expected. When not ran with 'snap run --trace-exec teams', I can see several processes running when I check 'ps aux | grep teams'. These never close themselves and require a 'kill <PID>' to exit. I have tried the following versions with apt/dpkg: 1.4.00.26453 1.3.00.16851 1.2.00.32451 and the version snap installs is: 1.4.00.26453 I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, clearing my cache using the following script, and any combination of the three. https://gist.github.com/mrcomoraes/c83a2745ef8b73f9530f2ec0433772b7 ~/.config/Microsoft/Microsoft Teams/logs/teams-startup.log A JavaScript error occurred in the main process Uncaught Exception: Error: /usr/share/teams/resources/app.asar.unpacked/node_modules/native-utils/build/Release/native-utils.node: undefined symbol: _ZN5Utils32IsQuietHourOrDoNotDisturbEnabledEv at process.module.(anonymous function) [as dlopen] (ELECTRON_ASAR.js:143:31) at Object.Module._extensions..node (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:722:18) at Object.module.(anonymous function) [as .node] (ELECTRON_ASAR.js:152:18) at Module.load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:602:32) at tryModuleLoad (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:541:12) at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:533:3) at Module.require (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:640:17) at require (/usr/share/teams/resources/app.asar/external/v8-compile-cache/v8-compile-cache.js:173:28) at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/share/teams/resources/app.asar/node_modules/native-utils/index.js:1:173) at Object.<anonymous> (/usr/share/teams/resources/app.asar/node_modules/native-utils/index.js:3:3) snap version snap 2.54.3+20.04.1 snapd 2.54.3+20.04.1 series 16 ubuntu 20.04 kernel 5.13.0-28-generic If any other info is needed or would be useful for troubleshooting, please let me know.
