As with the last build there are no messages in the GUI area after an over the top install. This never used to happen. Last time the messages only appeared after a reboot.
Still no new feature for adding browsers as talked about here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/new-box-creation-wizard-for-1-7-0-or-so.449445/ It is still tedious and not intuitive for users of Sandboxie, especially new users.
It would be a major improvement, and simplification, in the handling of Sandboxie in respect to browsers. That is potential customers in the future - DavidX.
Bug in Classic 5.63.1: Windows 10 Taskbar, when set to autohide, gets stuck behind Firefox window, forcing the use of Winkey to trigger taskbar. This can occur immediately after starting Firefox or after returning from a minimized window. This behavior isn't present when Firefox is run outside of Sandboxie. ReHIPS is installed on my PC, but the service was stopped during my testing. The previous version of Sandboxie I was running suffered from the invisible Firefox bug caused by installing ReHIPS, so perhaps this is somehow related to that.
I have a batch file with shortcut to kill & restart the taskbar - it used to happen for me a lot, but now very infrequently.
The one that shuts down and re-opens explorer.exe? I always end up losing icons in my notifications area when I do that. Thanks though! If anyone else has the hidden taskbar issue with Firefox, going back to version 5.62.1 fixed it. ReHIPS and Sandboxie also seem to get along fine with this version.
I don't lose icons. This is my version [commands off the net somewhere]: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Desktop /F taskkill /f /im explorer.exe taskkill /f /im shellexperiencehost.exe del %localappdata%\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost_cw5n1h2txyewy\TempState\* /q start explorer.exe
