Windows Sandbox Editor: a quick way to create or load Sandbox files

In this post I will show you the tool I created that allows you to generate and edit Sandbox configuration file with WSB extension.

How to get it ?

Click on the below GitHub picture to get the tool. 

You will find both EXE and sources.

False Trojan/Virus detection

Sometimes your antivirus may detect the EXE as a trojan or virus. In fact it's a false positive detection. Don't panic there is no virus, this is because of the generation of the EXE with PowerShell code.

As a workaround I added a folder on GitHub called Install on desktop (in case of issue with EXE).

To install the tool using this method, run the file Install_tool.ps1

This will create a shortcut Intunewin Build and Extract on your desktop and copy sources in ProgramData.

What it does ?
The tool is composed of four tabs:
- Basic infos
- Mapped folders
- Command
- Overview

Basic infos
- Set Sandbox name
- Set Sandbox path
- Enable or disable networking
- Enable or disable VGpu

Mapped folders
- Share a new folder from the host computer
- Edit an existing shared folder path
- Remove a shared folder from the configuration file

Commands
- Add a new startup command
- Edit an existing startup command
- Remove an existing startup command
