Sandboxie Acquired by Invincea

You are welcome. The UI is different and some of he terms in NoScript 10 are different than before but is all really the same. I am using NoScript 10 identically as I used the old NoScript. No difference. If you used NoScript before, try using it as you did in the past. Find how to do same functions as you used to. They all there. If you need help on how to use NS, ask them in the NS thread. I ll be glad to help.

I read in the NoScript thread that it stores data in storage-sync-sqlite.

On a similar note, anyone using uMatrix here? If I want to save my uMatrix rules / settings out of the sandbox, anyone know what I need to give Sandboxie Direct File access to?.

 

Everyone, please do support my "auto-sandbox" request on the SBIE forum, it will make SBIE even better and will give people no reason to switch to Comodo.

I believe it's c:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profile].default\browser-extension-data\uMatrix@raymondhill.net\storage.js that needs direct access.

 

Thanks @Minimalist. Will give that a try.

Looks like you're right, I have a similar entry for uBO.

 

No it wouldn't, because it's an optional feature. It would protect the noob-users that I know even better.

 

Chrome 64 doesn't load pages with sandboxie 5.22 stable
It just says "aw snap" then any page I try doesn't load

 

You should update to latest beta: https://forums.sandboxie.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=25365

 

Thanks

 

Guys please, you long time users already know that when there's a conflict issue or whatever you should try last beta which is already very stable as a final release and solves issues.

 

OK, that's true. IMO it would be better if Invincea would release final version once previous doesn't work after Windows and browser updates. If I were a "regular user" and browser stopped working after update, and there would be no new version of SBIE released, I would probably just uninstall it.

 

i needed to correct a pre-set opinion that all (sandboxie) beta and pre are crap and buggy -> "no way here".
"take it or leave it" - i dont only throw links i also add changelogs so user can make up his option again.
sick and tired.

 

BTW, I've installed Firefox 58 inside the sandbox, but upon start it acts a bit weirdly. It uses quite a lot of CPU time, and when loading the first website, it takes about 5 to 10 seconds, no matter what website is loaded. After that, sites load instantly.

So my question is, does FF 58 needs to be installed outside the sandbox, or do you guys also have these problems? No such problems with FF 52 which is installed outside the sandbox.

 

maybe concernd by https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1433065
as being global you should know about critics using old & vulnerable versions.
just fix your system and all will be fine.

 

Rasheed, you can try solving your issue by changing security.sandbox.content.level to 2, 1 or 0 in about:config.

If that doesn't do nothing for you, try disabling Multiprocess. Make sure both of this preferences are set to false in about:config:

browser.tabs.remote.autostart
browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2

FWIW ~ In Firefox 58+ multi-process is officially enabled and the previously used opt-in pref browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 is no longer supported and browser.tabs.remote.autostart is true by default.

 

Hi bjm, when I updated to Firefox 58, MP was reenabled automatically. I disabled it again afterward by setting browser.tabs.remote.autostart to false. After updating to Firefox 58, preference browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 was also set to false. in my about:config. I have both preferences set to false. My Firefox profile is 7 months old. I tested with a new profile and browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 does not appear anymore (confirming what you are saying).

Bo

 

Yeah, re your old profile....if you want....rt.clk ...browser.tabs.remote.autostart.2 ...Reset. Thanks

 

It looks like Windows has found a way to break sandboxie. Maybe time to switch to Linux. I HATE this. It says it's umcompatible

 

Did you try the sandboxie beta version? The stable version tends to be behind the times, but the beta version usually has better compatibility.

 

You shouldn't be having any problems using Sandboxie. January patches from Microsoft broke SBIE in W7 but that was fixed in beta 5.23.3. The patches didnt cause problems in W10. All is well, install 5.23.4 which was released today.
