Description

I have suddenly started receiving this error: "IXMLHttpRequest2Callback::OnError: -2146697205: The operation was timed out.

[process exited with code 1]"

When signing into the Azure Cloud Shell in Windows Terminal. Eventually it can be possible to get in but I am informed my session is ephemeral.

I am using: Windows Terminal Version: 1.11.2921.0

Please advise! Thanks.
