I used to run this already sketchy software with its even sketchier crack on my old notebook because I really didn’t give a fuck about how syphilitic it was, but now that I need it again and only have my current device, I’m kinda worried.
ps: it needs internet connection.
1: Windows Sandbox
2: Hyper-V
If you have 10 or 11 Pro, you should have these features. If not, there’s always
3: Oracle Virtualbox
4: VMware Player
For 2, 3, 4, Get Windows 11 IoT Edition to install in the VM
Windows has a built-in feature for this
Windows 11 is sketchy software
Surprised at the downvotes. I only run Windows these days blocked from the internet in my firewall. Treat it like the malware it is.
Personally I run VMware with windows on it.
This VM is disconnected from internet access and put on a separate VLAN on my network but has access to one share folder on my NAS.
Its overkill but fits my needs when I want to roll back the VM or save multiple sessions of it.
Replace the symlinks in the c/users/<username> directory with directories. And sandbox wine.Edit: oops, on Windows. Is sandboxie still a thing?
You can still download the old gui version for free. I use it to run a second simultaneous instance of AmScope software on a device at work. (Two microscope feeds on same screen for x y viewing)
I’m not totally clear on how sandboxie plus comes into play as one or both versions are open source
Sandboxie is old, but these days Windows has a sandbox built in. You could use that (basically a lightweight VM) or a full VM. Windows also has a built-in hypervisor for VMs that helps them run efficiently.
If running Linux on decent Hardware, try Winboat. Easiest way imho
Why not run a vm? Nevermind i forgot windows things. What about an alt for the software
You can run a VM in Windows. Virtualbox is what I’ve used in the past, and it’s pretty good. It’s obviously work to set up, but you can revert a VM and use it to test other sketchy software if you need
