    Owen,

    Still failing as of 14 hours ago..
    Did the changes not propagate?

    Thanks,

    Sorry, the images were fixed but not deployed. It should be working within the next hour, if not let us know.

    Owen,

    No worries.. The reason I asked about them being deployed is because I've
    made the same mistake (a few times) myself. :)

    Thanks for the great service!
    It's a big help to our open source project.

    -Bill

    Yes, I was waiting for confirmation that the VS2017 image is ok before I deploy the updated VS2015 image.

    Sorry for the delay the VS2017 image is fine, please update the VS2015 when you get a chance.

    Thanks for your help!

    That image was deployed some time ago. I just checked and there should be no blockage on using Visual studio on that image.
    Did you perhaps update your config to use Previous Visual Studio 2015, which is still pointing to previous image with expired licence?

    Here's the images we're using presently.
    - Visual Studio 2017 - Visual Studio 2019 - Visual Studio 2022

    The vs2015 failure is on Visual Studio 2017 image:

    Is it possible to renew the vs2015 license in the vs2017 image?
