In general I think we should all be running every single app in their own VMs. And in the oldest or most basic OS possible. Something like Windows XP.

- pjmlp 6y agoYeah, something like a sandbox!
- thejynxed 6y agoYou do not want to run such things in an XP VM if you can help it. XP is such a hot mess security wise that flaws in it allowed attackers to break VM sandboxing more than once.
- DaiPlusPlus 6y agoEh what? Bypassing VM sandboxing demonstrates a vulnerability in the VM host, not the VM guest.

- Sevaris 6y agoI always really liked the idea of Sandboxie (https://www.sandboxie.com/ https://www.sandboxie.com/) where you can run any and every application in its own sandbox, but I was never convinced that its security was as strong as it promised to be. I wish MS would implement something like this.
- DaiPlusPlus 6y agoThat’s what Microsoft App-V does.
