in Firewall

I am trying to use Windows Sandbox on a windows 10 pro machine. The application connects without issue with the firewall disabled , but stops internet connection with it enabled. I have created an rule to allow Windows Sandbox application but it does not work. Any ideas to configure rules to get this work?

    Hi, because of DHCP server for Sanbox client is disable when firewall is on, here is workaround (each running of sanbox instance)

    • disable firewall (will be down for 30 seconds),
    • run Windows Sandbox
    • check if network configuration was loaded (for ex. run Edge, try find something)
    • // if not - run cmd.exe in Sandbox, type ipconfig /renew, wait for IP configuration, check if gateway has value
    • ENABLE FIREWALL (!)
    • use Sandbox with network


    I hope Bitdefender expert will find permanent solution. I cannot find way to enable 67,68 UDP (DHCP).

    Pavel.
