When I run Windows Sandbox for the second time after closing it, it will never work again until reboot

I have a brand new installation of Windows 11 24H2, I added Windows Sandbox, when I run Sandbox for the first time after a fresh reboot, it will launch without any problem, if I close it after, and try to open it again it will fail with the message attached, I removed Sandbox added it again, same behavior, any idea how I can fix this? Thanks

You have to turn off Windows Sandbox and restart the computer, and then turn it back on when you want to use it again.

Don't want to use Windows Sandbox, or is it causing problems? Here is how to turn off Windows Sandbox completely in Windows 11.

Thank you for the feedback, the whole process to remove/add the Sandbox (I have done it 5 times already) including the double reboot takes more than 15min, especially the add part, it doesn't make sense to follow this route.

I have another Windows device where I can close and open the Sandbox as many times as I want, without reboots or turn on/off the module from Control Panel.

There is something else going on here, I need to figure it out.
