Sandboxie Technologies (SBIE Open source) (VERSION 5.33.6 ONLY!)

No not Edge beta. Just got another update to Edge to 85.564 .68 and it works well in Sandboxie 5.33.6. I won't run the beta on my rig.

Touché, am with you there. Got it on standby just in case.

 

Still wondering if this branch is now officially abandoned?

 

I have no problems at all running the latest version of Brave with SBIE 5.33.6. In fact, it starts up faster than Vivaldi does (old version).

 

No problems at all running the latest version of Firefox with SBIE 5.33.6 either.

 

Well, I'm actually a bit surprised that nobody except you even reacted to this idea. I don't really think that these companies even know about the current status of Sandboxie, so why not let them know? Like I said, even with 5000 paying customers it would still generate a nice revenue stream.

I've just installed the newest Vivaldi Portable, and it works correctly on Win 8.1, so it must be a Win 10 problem. Hopefully Tom will be able to fix this. And did you also try to disable Vivaldi's internal sandbox?

 

NVT (osarmor) has a >> million user base, why care about less than a per-mill (5000, your number) minority? The possible income of the new paid build will be insufficient for the development.

 

I have indeed installed this version, it was the snaphot. To be precise, it's this one: Vivaldi.3.4.2049.2.x64

It runs just fine in the same sandbox that my older Vivaldi 3.1 runs in. I can even run them at the same time in the same sandbox like I already mentioned. So I'm guessing there's something in Win 10 that's causing the problem. And BTW, I'm using Sandboxie 5.33.3 (64 bit), I assume you use the same?

 

OK cool, so that can't be the problem. And to clarify, I've installed Vivaldi 3.4 on my real system, not inside the sandbox, and I installed it as a "standalone" portable version inside a folder on my desktop.

 

Hope not @stapp! Wish Tom would (re-)emerge ...

 

Hallo bo,

thank you very much for your fast answer und the attachment to find the defaultbox

Before I delete the defaultbox by "hand" I have last questions:
Which folder have I to delete exactly?

left side is my path an the right side is yours
- do I delete "user" and "drive" in the folder DefaultBox to clear the defaultBox?



Does sandboxie when there will come new files
produce a new folder "drive" and a new folder "user" automatically?

Many greetings
Ralf

 

Hi Ralf. You go to C>Sandbox>RalfD, and delete the DefaultBox folder. You can right click it, and choose to delete. It ll go to the Recycle bin.

Sandboxie knows what to do. Afterward, as soon as you run a program in the DefaultBox sandbox, a new folder will be created and should be deleted automatically when you close the sandboxed program (if its set to be done this way and if there is no other security program that is interfering with SBIE working properly).

@Rasheed187 @stapp @wolfrun, etc. I have been following what you guys have been saying about potential problems between SBIE and future versions of Edge. Lately, I have been using Edge for a particular activity in which Firefox has become useless. So, having another browser other than Firefox as a good, solid, working browser for the first time ever it has become a must for me. As of right now, Edge is perfect for me as the seconf browser.

Keep the information coming. If it gets to happen that Edge doesn't work anymore with SBIE, if anyone knows of any Chromium browser that continues working with SBIE after that happens, let us know.

Bo

 

Hi David, FWIW, I remember when Protected mode became available in IE, Sandboxie changed its design so PM would be disabled automatically when IE ran in Sandboxie's sandbox. This was done so IE would continue working with SBIE.

I donk know what is the change in the Chromium betas code thats affecting using this browsers under Sandboxie, but perhaps you can investigate to see what you would need to disable in order for this browsers to work with SBIE.

Personally, I think (for you) working on something like this is a lot more important than changing the UI, or adding functions to SBIE.

Best regards.

Bo

 

Time to relook at ReHIPS?

 

Thats really bad news. Based on what you are saying, I guess the Cut (works/doesn't work anymore) is probably when we get to 86.

 

Never. I haven't used Shadow defender in years, but it is a good option for me to use it as a replacement for the times I must use Edge.

Also, perhaps David can take a look at beta Edge and work out the solution. Or, you never know, we might hear from Tom, or, I might ask (or beg) Curt to take a look at it. We still have options.

Bo

 

Ha ha Bo. Knew you would say never. We look to you to pull strings, as you are most connected out there!

 

Hi, Bo. I have no experience at all with ReHIPS but maybe that some day it will be necessary to look for an alternative for Sandboxie.* Therefore I would like to ask you: Do you mean "Never" because of unsufficient security offered by ReHIPS or because of complexity in using it?

*[Shadow Defender is an excellent program but for my needs it would not be a convincing alternative for Sandboxie.]

 

i must have done it wrongly.
Installed 5.33.6 and added latest Brave (from Program Files). Remove and added Brave Folder instead
On both instances, the extensions crash and no internet access for Brave.

 

Thanks Bo, I need the link to install SBIE again

but

Any direct download link?

Thanks
Camelia

 

Actually, I haven't even tested Edge, but I assume that if Vivaldi runs correctly on my system, so will Edge. Aren't you still using Win 8.1, if so perhaps you can confirm that Vivaldi 3.4 runs perfectly fine when sandboxed.

Like I said, the problem seems to be only on Win 10, so there must be something that causes the newest Chromium browsers to malfunction when sandboxed. When did you last update Win 10, perhaps you can remove the latest patches to see what happens. On the other hand, Vivaldi 3.2 and 3.3 work just fine if I understood correctly.
