Microsoft App-V has been around for 5+ years though it sounds like it would be a Docker to Bromium's Xen.

Sandboxie was one of the original Windows application virtualization options 10 years ago.

I was hoping something would become the 'Docker for Windows' but these programs are being snapped up by software security companies.

Might want to check out spoon.net - they are working on containers for Windows. Been doing app virt for a long time. I use them for side by side browser testing : )

Sandboxie is still available, and free for home use (with a small 5 second nag screen to pay).
