Windows 11 Pro 24H2: How to disable or hide the Sandbox settings (”…”) menu?

Danny Yun 0

I have recently updated to Windows 11 Pro version 24H2, and I noticed that when launching Windows Sandbox, a new settings menu (displayed as three dots “…”) appears at the top-right corner of the Sandbox window.

I would like to know if there is any way to hide or disable this settings menu, either through Group Policy (GPO), registry modifications, or any other official method provided by Microsoft.

The goal is to prevent users from accessing options such as folder sharing and clipboard redirection inside Sandbox.

I have reviewed the Windows Sandbox documentation on learn.microsoft.com but could not find any related instructions.

Could you please advise if there is a way to control or remove this UI element in Sandbox under Windows 11 24H2?

Thank you very much.
