'ContosoDc/DcPromoDsc' fails

[ukaeufe]

Describe the bug

I try to deploy this project using PowerShell on Windows 10 ( I am outside a VPN )

I ran the ARM templates from powershell and ran into an issue which I think is
Related to the setup and not to my local dev machine. I have a Choco installed. Also tried with admin console.

I complains in the DSC step that a VM cannot find a Choco executable.

I think this is not about my local choco setup which works.
