  Logon script for Windows Sandbox



This is my personal logon script for Windows Sandbox.

Tested on Windows 11. Some things may not work on a Windows 10 sandbox.

## Getting Started

Clone the repo and create your own configuration file.

```bat

git clone https://github.com/Strappazzon/wsb.git

cd wsb/

cp config.example.wsb config.wsb

```

For all configuration options, see: [Windows Sandbox configuration](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/application-security/application-isolation/windows-sandbox/windows-sandbox-configure-using-wsb-file).

You can also create your configuration file with [WSBEditor](https://leestevetk.github.io/WSBEditor/WSBEditor-Latest.html).

This script will run at logon and will change / install the following:
