Containers and Hypervisor use? Is HSN networking containers illusive? Or just standard windows containers?

Hello with Containers turned off does Windows 10 create containers for Windows Advanced firewall for use with Hypervisor-V?

There is not much information about what "HNS containers" are used for.


I would think it would say Hypervisor Containers, or default Windows Containers. The terms are illusive here. Can anyone direct me on what to look into for HNS containers?


If this is used for Hypervisor-V my system has 2 VMs I run inside of Hypervisor-V and 1 I have with VMware installed with one VM. 3 VMs total.


If I delete the containers they come back on next reboot, even if I do not start the VMs. This I see as a issue, if it is truly isolated virtual machines for Windows 10 pro Hypervisor-V, why recreate and open up firewall rules after you remove the ACLs to close them? Even if you do not restart the VMs after removal of the ACLs they are recreated. This is working in reverse of isolation it creates the ACLs for the containers and does not let you delete them even when the VMs are not in use. Even if you are not using the VMs. This is leaving the VM network now non isolated from the firewall rules when in non use.


I see this as a security issue if your not currently running a isolated VM then why does the firewall rules still reside? The VM then created a non isolated environment inside of the Windows Firewall with rules that open up ports. Meaning the VM is no longer isolated form the Windows 10 live hardware medium.


Can anyone help?


I also loaded docker desktop and reset the docker containers I did not have any running inside of Docker Desktop.


My system is not on a Domain. It is a personal Laptop I have to do College work with.

If I toggle the containers the ACL rules are still present.


Where does the containers tool reside? I would like to delete them if they are not needed or no longer in used?


How can I scan containers for invasive use if they are isolated?


This option states this provides tools to work with containers where are the container tools located?


The containers or list can be attached here for review also.
