I have installed Sandboxie 5.33.6 on my windows 7 PC, I can't seem to use google chrome with Sandboxie but other browsers such as FireFox and IE are working with it. I'm not sure, but it might be my antivirus because before I was using Avast and google chrome was working with Sandboxie, but I changed my antivirus recently to Eset and chrome stopped working with Sandboxie. These are the error messages that I am getting: https://ibb.co/SVQ3cqy Any fix to this?
could be eset injecting its dll into chrome or sandboxie https://community.sophos.com/produc...5/sandboxed-web-browser-chrome-error-sbie2303 http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=7431.0 i dont have such issue with chrome.exe (chromium) on windows 8. i am not sure how it was resolved, could be exception in eset for sandboxie folder.
I have been using Sandboxie for 10+ years, and have been running ESET NOD32 on a couple Windows 7 machines along with SBIE for 8 of those years, so hopefully you know that it is a standard combination, and you discover the correct configuration. At the very least, make sure in the Sandboxie Contol window to select Configure|Software Compatability|ESET. Also (and this is probably too obvious for me to be mentioning), make sure that [chrome.exe] is showing under Forced Programs. Good luck.
Hello, I have just tried your suggestion, but still no luck getting chrome to work. I even added chrome and Sandboxie to my exception list on Eset.
Not a good idea to exclude Chrome in ESET. FWIW, I am running ESET without any exclusions, so I know that is not necessary. Wait until member bo elam shows up. Bo knows these things.
Unfortunately, I did not get it to work. I have installed Microsoft Edge as an alternative to Chrome and I still get the same error messages, as of right now I'm just messing around with ESET settings to try and fix this issue.
I just found out if I disabled ESET HIPS and restart my PC, I could start Chrome with Sandboxie without any problems. Now I know it`s something to do Chrome/Sandboxie and ESET HIPS. I don't want to use Chrome with Sandboxie while ESET HIPS setting is disabled. I was wondering if you might know a solution to this?
I am sorry, I do not have any proposed solutions for you beyond what I have already stated... which isn't much, I know. I will say that personally, I have always ranked Sandboxie as my most crucial security program, and if I came across another program that I could not get to coexist with it, I would always choose to keep Sandboxie, even if it meant removing and not using the the other program. That has always been my method, for at least the last 10+ years as a Sandboxie user. In your particular case, I would keep SBIE, keep Chrome, and run ESET with HIPS disabled, or configured so as to run correctly with SBIE, if/when you eventually figure it out. I understand it probably doesn't help you to know this, but I currently run those three programs together (with HIPS enabled) on the same OS that you are running, and I do that on two computers. One more shot... I see I have ESET HIPS filtering set at Automatic (not Smart, Interactive, Policy-based or Learning). Not sure if that is default. And to go back to a previous suggestion, if you tried configuring Sandboxie with ESET software compatibility enabled, and things aren't running right, you can always try removing that compatibility and see if that works.
