    Anyone here running Windows Defender Application Guard? Seems like a good replacement for Sandboxie. The only thing is that it doesn't work with Yubikey. Sandboxie has an option to recognize Yubikeys.

    Also, Hitmanpro Alert doesn't seem to be active (no green border) on Application Guard Edge windows.

    I'd like to start a petition for MS to make Application Guard work with Yubikey.

    Been using it for ages. Working really well, but I wish the performance was better. Probably would be, if my CPU wasn't ancient as far as tech goes. i7-6700K.

    Never used a Yubikey though.

    Yubikey is a great 2nd factor authentication tool. Google's advanced protection program works with it.

    Your cpu is from 2015, it is still pretty good. It is application guard that is slow. I have an i5-10210U, and I also notice the slowness of application guard.

    I think slow pc's have one feature, you will notice the slowness even more when you are hacked. :)
