    Hundreds of entries for "HNS Container Networking" in Windows Firewall


    Using Win10 Pro 20H2 build 19042.1110

    I was looking in Windows Firewalls advanced settings and noticed I have hundreds of entries for HNS Container Networking. I did a search on this and the only thing useful I could find was from a thread from tenforums What is "HNS Container Networking" and why is it..... I don't have Hyper-V enabled in Windows Features but I do have Windows Sandbox enabled. I can't find anything about why there would be so many entries.

    Is this normal? Will this cause any performance issues by having so many entries? Should I try deleting them?

    Will something bad happen if I manually delete all these entries?
