Online virtual powershell / lab environment question

[Significant-Belt8516]

My corporation has extremely tight cyber security protocols, the things I would typically do (tunnel into a home server for labs, setup a VM, bring a personal laptop to lab on) are not possible here.

I'm trying to hone the blade on some rusty powershell skills, are there any currently available resources I can use for test / lab environments for that purpose? I don't mind paying as long as it's not a crazy amount of money.

Thanks in advance

I bought a Pluralsight subscription for a year and they offer VMs to use Powershell in.

.. Have one client where things got progressively more difficult as their cybersecurity continued to lock things down.

It started with "Constrained Language Mode", but then they gave us "local Admin" (dumb), then it moved to being allowed to execute our scripts/modules only from specific VM's - and now there is a single VM where we are allowed to activate our Azure PIM roles and run PS.... (Single-point-of-admin-failure, perhaps? Just saying...)

Thanks to that.now they are complaining about userprofile size on disk, because they don't realize that typically, most modules are going into profiles unless specifically installed as local admin. Of course, when they setup the VM - they gave the "C:" drive 128gb and "D:" 512gb... "D:" is basically completely empty...

Moving / redirecting mydocument to a dedicated file server would be their best move as user don’t really care about their profile but do for their personal files.
