This build enables shadow stack for the SbieDll.dll improving on security on systems with gen11 Intel and Ryzen 5000 AMD CPUs. This build restructures the Box options a bit and adds a hole new page allowing to control the file migration behavior as well as adding a couple SBIE messages to indicate file migration operations which may cause compatibility issues. This build also provides a new Box creation wizard and improves on the box picker dialog. It is now possible to create a new sandbox from the run sandboxes dialog and if need be set it as temporary, so that it gets removed after the program terminates. The box picker dialog was improved and contains now a search function to be accessed with Ctrl+F. The boxes now created use by default the Delete V2 scheme in case you experience any issues with new boxes, this can be changed back in the box options to the old Delete V1, no old boxes will be migrated to Delete V2. To improve on security the SandMan UI now indicates which processes have an administrative and which a system token. Furthermore with this build it is possible to define file checker triggers to for example invoke a script to run a virus scan on a file before it is allowed to be recovered. Last but not least this build fixes a lot of issues, please see Changelog for more details. Its pretty much 1.7.1a with a couple more fixes as its no longer a pre-release it got an own thread Download: https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/releases/tag/v1.7.2
In Sandboxie settings under Box Structure I have Virtualization scheme set to 1. What does that do? If I change it to 2, what will that do? What is 'Use volume serial numbers for drives, like: \drive\C~1234-ABCD'?
[1.1.0 / 5.56.0] - 2022-05-24 Changed reworked the mechanism Sandboxie uses to mark host files as deleted -- under the new behaviour a data file (FilePaths.dat) is created in the box root instead of dummy files -- it can be enabled with UseFileDeleteV2=y and also for the registry with UseRegDeleteV2=y which creates a reg file (RegPaths.dat) Fixed fixed folder rename issues (this requires UseFileDeleteV2=y) #71 [0.8.0 / 5.50.0] - 2021-06-13 Added added "UseVolumeSerialNumbers=y" that allows drive letters to be suffixed with the volume SN in the \drive\ sandbox location -- it helps to avoid files mixed together on multiple pendrives using the same letter -- Note: this option is not compatible with the recovery function of the Classic UI, only SandMan UI is fully compatible
ah I forgot that and my todo is so long.... will try to remember for the next release if not remind me again please
could you pelase sugest an overlay icon to indicate a pending update EDIT: i added a blinking sunn in the upper left corner of the icon
I had no idea, so I asked ChatGPT and got: "A common symbol used to indicate a program update is available in a tray icon is an upward-pointing arrow superimposed on a circular background. This symbol is widely recognized as representing a "refresh" or "update" action. Another common symbol is a circular arrow, often used to symbolize the downloading or updating of data" But how about a downward pointing arrow? or maybe one from https://www.flaticon.com/free-icons/update Otherwise a blinking sun sounds good!
BTW, I tried to install a new browser named Stack, which is geared to corporate usage, but it wouldn't install in Sandboxie. Perhaps you or someone else can check it out. https://stackbrowser.com
Anyone who has trouble running Sandboxie with ESET should follow these instructions. It worked for me! The test version has already fixed the bug! Sandboxie now runs Firefox correctly. The regular version does not. https://forum.eset.com/topic/35457-...ot-allow-you-to-run-firefox-inside-sandboxie/
This is good news! Just a heads-up for @DavidXanatos (to make him aware), so that he can concentrate his efforts where needed more
Have you asked Sbie to check for updates under Global/Support and Updates? If yes perhaps untick it or alter the settings?
Yes I have asked and used to get updates via this mechanism for the last two months. Now I changed my mind and rather update manually. I did untick it but once Sandboxie Manager has knowledge there's a new update available it doesn't quit blinking its tray icon.
Yes but as you can see, Notify setting gets greyed out as soon as I untick the box which means Notifications are disabled too, I asume. Seems that when sbie is aware of an update and start blinking, it gets stubborn and wants you to apply it wanting or not
