Hi All

As you know, in an Azure Sandbox Environment you can decide if create it with or without Data.

This is not possible when you download the VHD All-in-one machine.

In order to achieve this result from my understanding there are two options:

André post, https://kaya-consulting.com/how-to-start-with-empty-ax-database-in-your-local-vm/where you have to create before the Env in Azure with an Empty Database, Backup it and move to your VHD
I have Play around to the VHD Disk C and I notice a folder named “EmptyDataset” with inside a Database backup named “AxBootstrapDB_Empty.BAK”
I have simply restore this backup file against the AX Database and set the right GUID and email id retrieved from the “old” AX Demo Data.

Till soon!
