The new release of Chocolatey 2.0.0 from May 31 are upgrading the .NET:

-"Upgrade to target version 4.8 of the .NET Framework" chocolatey/choco#2738

https://docs.chocolatey.org/en-us/choco/release-notes

I am testing a workaround:

Edit the file 'New-AzSHCISandbox.ps1' and change the line 2543:

From: Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

To: Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; Invoke-WebRequest -Uri 'https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1' -OutFile 'install.ps1'; .\install.ps1 -ChocolateyDownloadUrl "https://community.chocolatey.org/api/v2/package/chocolatey/1.4.0"

EDIT: worked

@lucaslccs thank you for the quick workaround. When this is merged, I'll give it another spin as well.

@easyveazie , @lucaslccs - has a pull request to make this change already been submitted? I also had the same issue and that change in the script fixed my deployment as well

Hello @easyveazie / @lucaslccs / @JuliaHazelwood , I messaged with Luminita Vijiianu in TEAMS and sharing the same here.

In my communications with PMs/Devs, there have been some newer options introduced in the last month in terms of evaluating Azure Stack HCI.

Here are the latest offerings:

• https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure-stack/hci/deploy/deployment-virtual
• https://arcjumpstart.com/azure_jumpstart_hcibox/getting_started

There hasn’t been any determination on the fix or continuation of use with the Evaluation Guide. For now, please see the two options posted above.

@easyveazie - with the new items shared can we close this issue?
