There was a problem hiding this comment.
These loops fire OnCollectionChanged events for every operation which is inefficient and can make UX less responsive.
There is BulkObservableCollection class that has AddRange method and
BeginBulkOperation and EndBulkOperation methods that can be used to suspend notification while doing multiple changes to the collection.

Using that requires adding the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Language.Intellisense nuget package so I don't think we want to add it this close to cut off. Luckily the amount of properties sent back by both the Hyper-V extension and Dev Box are small (4 for dev box and 5 for hyper-V). So I can investigate using the above nuget package after build

Summary of the pull request
This issue doesn't happen often but it is still an issue that can crash Dev Home which I observed. See: #2947
I explained the issue in point 1 in this PR: #2892
Basically, when you perform any action in the environments page, e.g Starting/Stopping the properties are updated because they may have changed as a result of the operation. In the issue I how the exception that can happen when we attempt to remove the old items from the observable collection. But because we go on add items to the collection afterwards we get an exception. As a minimal change I'm moving the loop that add new items to the observable collection to the try/catch. And then if there is an exception create a new observable collection with the new items. This will least allow the user to see the updated properties.
In the future I'd like to investigate why the observable collection is throwing but for build we can do this work around
