Details of issue

I can upload the add-in, but when it tries to activate, I get this error:
Content was blocked because it was not signed by a valid security certificate

this step is missing it seems

Reading the hands on lab...it really doesn't work for Windows as it uses sudo everywhere. We'd have to write it again.

We do have all the PC instructoins for this in existing dev.office.com/training content.

@hshapley what do you think?

@jthake That is not my lab, it's Sudheer's. But if he's not willing to update it, I can update it. Those instructions are super incomplete right now.

The original issue is with my lab, but you linked to a different one (Sudheer's Mac one). Both have issues, mine just the cert issue but Sudheer's that and others.

Fixed the VM template to have the trusted security cert. i will open a new issue for Sudheer to update his lab.
