Windows Sandbox - Strange Behavior??

[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 1005068, member: 61091"] fwiw my first and recent experience, windows sandbox was easier to setup than VMWare or Virtualbox (from my recollection of those). I may go back to VMWare. What I saw with win sandbox, it seems like ms limits what you can edit in terms of network apps, all my sandbox traffic got networked thru ms dns in california, which I found a tad odd as I use UniFi routers that use their dns, not my isp. UniFi works fine with my vpn in win10 but ms seemed not to like either UniFi or any vpn in sandbox and seemed like it broke my connection somehow. When I closed sandbox and used it again next day, it was working again with ms dns and edits to MS Edge do not take hold. I am not a network engineer so could have been my blunders, but sandbox connection did not seem normal to me. Basically I gave up after 2d use of win sandbox, but may use it sparingly in some situations, but not as a daily layer of surfing protection. I think user might be sacrificing privacy for enhanced feeling of secuirty which may not exist. And I could be clueless. I read some but not all of earlier posts. not sure what I'm feeling :unsure: just testing a few things since my vmware is not running, but thanks, I will check out Edge Application Guard. (y) "funny" story: Application Guard was already enabled on my win10, default is off, and I have no recollection of having enabled it, but ok... I open MS Edge, select New AG Window, new window opens with indications it is running AG. But... as soon as I start to use it, the Edge AG window crashes, implodes, disappears... Hunting down why here. MS Defender is not win10 AV, but best I can tell aspects of it are running running background, ie available to the system, my running registered AV is ESET, so I sent an email to ESET tech support to see if that could be the problem. I suspect that ESET is not the problem, once I hear what they say, I'll know more. Ugh [/QUOTE]
