Hi, The last couple of days, my Edge keeps on closing by itself. I guess it was an attack of some sort. But I don't know what the payload can do. All I can do is erase Sandbox and reboot. I don't think there is any way to know what the payload can do, but I'll ask here anyways.
Sounds like Edge is crashing. Run suggestions in guide: https://www.windowscentral.com/five-ways-fix-common-problems-microsoft-edge-chromium
If it happens while watch videos at YouTube... https://www.wilderssecurity.com/thr...d-edge-looks-like.414193/page-28#post-3005302
I use Sandoxie. It provides a virtualized environment for your browser. Their sandbox folder is called c:\Sandbox. So when something bad happens to the browser, you are supposed to delete the sandbox and all the stuff the attacker installed ( which would be restricted to c:\Sandbox, as the attackers see it as c:\ ) will be gone. I also reboot the machine as their payload is also active in memory, regardless if they managed to gain persistence.
Got it, thanks. I was just seeking clarification. Maybe your question should be posted in the relevant Sanboxie thread?
It is exceptionally unlikely that it is an attack. It will a bug of some sort or a problem with an extension.
