Issue solved. My personal drive was somehow corrupted.
Hi. Is the Pwnbox likely to be updated? Some of the updates are very big.

Yes, very very big…
Hi, I found I cannot spawn Pwnbox even I have time left,
When I click start, the web UI show “Starting…” and same screen after 20 minutes
I have tried to respwan new Pwnbox, but the UI just said “You already have a active instance”, but where is it? I cannot find it

Same here. I’m hoping it’s something temporary and not burning through my allowance.

I’d suggest raising a jira helpdesk ticket for this. It is very, very rare for HTB staff to read the forums and I don’t know of any way that the service desk team can become aware of the problem if they aren’t told.

Its probably best to ask this in a thread for the box you are working on.

Thank you for the assistance here Taz!
You’re always so supportive of the members here and we really appreciate it.
We do rarely check the forums.
Definitely recommend, as Taz said, to raise a ticket on our support system linked in my signature.
Thank you guys! <3

Sounds like a Jira Ticket that needs to be raised.
There is a link to Jira from the support page (or check out @0nenine9 Signature (right above your post)

How can I upgrade the pwnbox?
I suspect the pwnboxes are restricted from accessing the internet in general - at least that’s what the error looks like.
I have no idea how they get upgraded but I suspect it would need to be on the base image rather than users doing it individually.
It might be better to raise a jira ticket for this.
Encountered internet access issue either. From the introduction page of pwnbox, mirrors accessed by apt install should be allowed but I can not install anything using apt.

That definitely sounds like a problem HTB support need to fix. They will only know it exists if you raise JIRA ticket.
When using pwnbox in a web browser certain key combinations get intercepted. This is problematic when I use Emacs, as copy-and-paste key combinations can result in the web browser window closing instead. Is there a better client to get the pwnbox remote desktop that won’t steal the keystrokes, and maybe is a bit more natural for the clipboard?
I am interested in alternative clients for both Linux and Microsoft Windows.
