The latest Windows 11 has Vulkan support to Windows Sandbox and maybe Hyper-V so when the sandbox loads Windows, it has vulkaninfo available and running. and in device manager there is the actual GPU not just an emulated one.

So I tried running Vulkan application such as vkcube, and my own application. But it is missing VK_KHR_swapchain extention. Is there a way to make it work? If I try vkcube I get that VK_KHR_swapchain is missing vkCreateInstance:

 failure vkEnumatedDeviceExtensionProperties failed to find the VK_KHR_swapchain extention
Do you have a compatible Vulkan installable client driver (ICD) installed?

So why does vulkaninfo show long list of available information but missing this? What is the meaning of Vulkan support if this basic part is missing?

Is there a workaround?

Tried configuring sandbox with vGpu enabled but this removed the vulkaninfo. Any suggestions?

Thanks
