Azure not stopping VM

azurevirtual-machines

I've created a VM on Azure and I'm trying to stop it. I clicked the stop button in the Azure Portal and I got a message saying "Stopping Virtual Machine" this has been going on for the last 30 minutes. Is it normal for Azure to take this long to stop a VM or is there something wrong here?

According to your description, maybe there are something wrong with the browse, we can use PowerShell to get the status of your Azure VM, in this way we can find the VM's status:

PS C:\Users> Get-azurermvm -ResourceGroupName vm -Name jasonvm -Status
ResourceGroupName          : vm
Name                       : jasonvm
BootDiagnostics            :

    DisplayStatus          : Ready

Statuses[1]                :
  Code                     : PowerState/running
  Level                    : Info
  DisplayStatus            : VM running

Also we can use PowerShell command to stop this VM:
Stop-AzureRmVM -Name -ResourceGroupName

For test, we can change another browse to login Azure portal.
