Windows Sandbox: Η Microsoft ανακοίνωσε επίσημα ένα χαρακτηριστικό που αναμένεται να έρθει με τα Windows 10 19H1 στις αρχές του επόμενου έτους. Η εταιρεία το αναφέρει σαν “Windows Sandbox” και θα είναι μέρος των εκδόσεων των Windows 10 Pro και Enterprise.
The new feature will create an “isolated temporary environment” where the users will be able to run suspicious software, company officials said in a blog post on December 18.
Earlier this year, there were rumors that Microsoft was preparing a new security feature in Windows 10, which it then called “InPrivate desktop".
InPrivate Desktop reported on Microsoft's Insider Feedback Hub during a bug-bash in August. The code name for the InPrivate Desktop (then) was "Madrid".
In today's announcement of the Windows Sandbox blog, Microsoft executives said the feature would be available to Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise users running Build 18301 or a new one. (Microsoft has not yet released Build 18301 on Windows 10 on Insider testers, but could do so later this week.)
Later, however, the publication reported that the feature could work with Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise on Build 18292. This feature requires an AMD64 platform and BIOS-enabled virtualization capabilities.
Το Windows Sandbox είναι μια ελαφριά εικονική μηχανή που βασίζεται στις τεχνολογίες που χρησιμοποιούν τα Windows Containers, σύμφωνα με τη δημοσίευση. Το Windows Sandbox uses a new technology that Microsoft calls an "integrated scheduler," which allows the host to decide when to run the sandbox.
