Answer 2

Most times this can be resolved simply by disconnecting and re-connectomg to the machine. You could try restarting also the VM from the portal. If this doesn't help, try the steps here if it's a windows machine:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/shell-experience/windows-logon-process-failed-spawn-user-app?source=recommendations
