    Windows Sandbox not found in start menu


    Today I have manually updated Windows 10 to 1903 with the Update Tool.
    I activated Windows Sandbox in Windows Features and restarted my notebook. I have Hyper-v already enabled because I use Ubuntu virtualized. I have Windows 10 Pro.

    When I search Windows Sandbox in the start menu, I can't find anything.

    Could you give me any advice?
    Thanks

    For me it took a few restarts for it to appear.
    Even then it gives an error upon opening after around 30 seconds - I’ve reported this via feedback.

    I tried to uninstall and install again Hyper-V and Sandbox. As result, I had no internet connection anymore. Then I uninstalled Hyper-v and Sandbox and internet connection came back.
    I'm shocked!

    Did you enable Virtualization, Hyper-V, Windows Sandbox in Optional Windows Features in Program & Features? Also Virtualization and Hyper-V have to be enabled in the BIOS.

    • Virtualization in BIOS was already enabled because I use an Ubuntu VM in Hyper-V
    • Hyper-v was enabled in Windows
    • Then I updated Windows to 1903
    • I enabled Sandbox and restarted
    • Sandbox not found in start menu.


    Then I tried to disable all and enable again. Another problem arose:
    • I disabled Sandbox and Hyper-v in Windows and restarted pc
    • I enabled Hyper-v and restarted pc
    • My internet Ethernet connection didn't work
    • I enabled Sandbox and restarted
    • Sandbox not found in start menu


    Now I've disabled Sandbox and Hyper-v because I need Internet connection.

    I'm very confused.

    What do you mean? Delete the VM from VM manager?
