Hi everyone - we are about to roll out a change in the next few days that will allow you to force recovery mode if your workspace is stuck during creation:

This should help make it easier to debug any dev.nix issues without you needing to re-create your workspace.

Cheers,  
Kirupa

We also just added this “Reset” option in the dashboard to force-reboot a VM. It solves for a different set of challenges (i.e. if you get your VM in a bad state) than recovery mode, but it’s relevant for anyone troubleshooting.
