In 2018, programmers from Microsoft presented an interesting innovation for the Windows 10 operating system – users have the opportunity to launch the “Sandbox” (Windows Sandbox). This is a special virtual environment in which you can run unreliable software or, for example, open potentially dangerous websites without fear of harming your system, since the Sandbox does not have access to computer files. Now in the build of Windows 10 with index 21343 for Insiders, an important update to this function was presented, which will allow you to launch the Sandbox faster and work more comfortably.
The fact is that since the release, the Windows Sandbox function has been working on the technology of special containers (Windows Container), which is integrated into Windows 10. And earlier, the environment in which these containers are executed coincided with the host of the system, which led to a decrease in performance and a rather long the launch time of the “Sandbox” itself. The new Insider build has fixed this issue by implementing a new container runtime. This will enable the sandboxed launch of applications and web pages in a virtual environment to run much faster and launch Sandbox faster.
The developers of the updated version of Windows Sandbox said that the update will especially delight the owners of old computers with a slow processor – even on them, the “Sandbox” will work efficiently due to the optimized environment. In addition, Microsoft has delighted users actively launching potentially dangerous websites through the Sandbox by including a new Chromium-based Microsoft Edge browser in their build. However, it is worth noting that the improved virtual environment has received a significant update, so users may well encounter non-standard software behavior in Windows Sandbox.
