Windows Sandbox

One of the new features of the Windows 10 May 2019 Update is the Windows Sandbox . It is a simple virtualization tool that can be used, for example, to test software that we do not want to install on the operating system itself, or to open a potentially infected file without risking damage to the computer.

It is not a replacement for VirtualBox or similar complex tools. Windows Sandbox can create one isolated copy of Windows 10 itself, the state of which cannot be saved. The tool also has its advantages - very simple usage.

It’s possible to run more than one Skype account on your computer at the same time. This might be useful if you have, for example, a Skype account you use for work and another account just for personal use.
