I need to run two instances of a program side by side (to see the data entry screens for 2 years, and the stupid program doesn't allow it - big time saver!), so I thought of SBIE. The only way I could get the program to run, trial and error, was to set up a sandbox with the application exe as a "Breakout Program". While I am not at all worried about any loss of security in this case, I am interested to understand what they are - I have read the rubric in SBIE but I still don't understand.
What program are you trying to run at the same time? Do a Google search for 'run the same program at the same time' and you'll find lots of ways to do this.
I spoke to the developers who said it was not possible, but it seems they were wrong. Simple as shift-run!! Grrrrr And thank you very much DjKilla - much easier than messing with SBIE
they are NOT wrong. their program maybe set a mutex or other flags to prevent this. shift + click means that the program runs for another user on your system, not your user. in bad case it create different data in the other user account. and thats a windows feature, or why do you can switch users on the run? programs in current user are not stopped or killed, they are still running while working on another user account.
For my purpose it's not a problem; just looking at py. And I have serious amounts of backups in the unlikely event of corruption.
