 Dan (and everyone else):
My assignment from the Chicago Computer Society is not to use third party tools to do sandboxing in Windows 11. It is to test the sandboxing features within Windows 11 Pro itself. These features use Microsoft's Hyper-V for virtualization, then Windows 11 Pro's own sandboxing features.
I was wondering if anyone had yet used these features in Windows 11 Pro, and if so, what should I be watching out for? (Are there any "gotchas" to be aware of?) I know about the lack of persistence -- e.g., data generated, changes made or software installed will not be retained from a sandboxed session when the session is ended (by logging out or rebooting).

 Adding on due to my curiosity of this thread!
I have not used native Sandboxing yet.  I have used Sandboxie to great success, and spun up win x lite on Virutal machines for some things. (Both got me out of the MS world for tests, Kind of.) What do they want you to try and or Proof of concept? 
Thanks,
Dan

Fascinating! Once I clear away some of my current projects I should look into this.
BTW, has anyone been working with Windows 11 sandboxing. The Chicago Computer Society is asking me to try it out. Any "gotchas" I should know about before I enable sandboxing in Windows 11 Pro 24H2?
