Windows Sandbox has the following advantages

Pre-configuration

Users do not need to download system mirrors or software to start running immediately

One-off

Windows Sandbox is completely disposable, and every time a user closes it and reopens it, it is a completely new version of Windows installation.

Security

When turned off, all content is deleted, and hardware-based virtualization is used to isolate the kernel.

Performance

Because of the use of intelligent memory management and virtual GPU, this function can also run quickly in the mid-end system configuration.

Minimum System Requirements for Using Windows Sandbox

Windows 10 Version 1903 or later

Windows 10 Professional Edition, Enterprise Edition orThe serverEdition

Four gigabytes of memory (recommended 8GB)

1 GB of spare disk space (solid state disk recommended)

64-bit processors supporting virtualization

Enabling virtualization in motherboard BIOS

Windows Sandbox will emerge as a stand-alone, fully functional and completely new Windows system. Users use it to run untrusted websites, files, etc. The personalization settings and settings you enable will not be overwritten. Neither your third-party software nor applications installed from Store will appear.

Like the actual operating system, you can still access the File Explorer, but for security reasons, this is limited to Sandbox internals.

performance

This feature uses Windows Containers and is deeply integrated into Windows 10 systems, so it is an application rather than an application.virtual machineRunning can greatly improve performance. Sandbox will take up most of your computer's memory and CPU for your own use. It also uses part of network speed and disk space.
