Is there any kind of logging I can turn on that would help me debug this? When it crashes, I get the error message "SBIE2203 Failed to communicate with Sandboxie Service: null reply (msg 00001B81 len 2457974)". It very definitely happens when I enable the Lastpass extension and everything works find when I disable the Lastpass extension (I do have other extensions loaded).

Yeah, I should have said I tried it with both of those as well as every update to Sandboxie or FF since I reported the problem.

It's the same bad result.

When I open Firefox in the sandbox it works fine.
As soon as I login to my LastPass account the whole thing locks up.
Using Firefox version 40.0.3 and LastPass version 3.2.16

This is an old problem I've seen since Windows 7, Sandboxie 4.12, and FF 31 (August 2014). I posted the problem here (http://forums.sandboxie.com/phpBB3/view ... 11&t=19414 ), never got any replies. I think I made a bug report, never got any replies there either. The problem exists to this day despite the changes to FF and Sandboxie.

It happens with Chrome and Lastpass in Sandboxie as well. Since Lastpass is essential for managing my logins, it really puts a big crimp in using Sandboxie while browsing.

+1 People use it because of free upgrade (time to upgrade is one year) and for D3D12... but we have only one d3d12 benchmark for now

If you have dump files, please post them somewhere.

As for Steam, it won't be possible to get every game to run in a SB. It depends on what the game requires outside of the SB. Some games will refuse to run in a sandbox.

It's not just a Win10 issue..or a Windows issue.

As for "mature" I'd disagree. The core criteria of SBIE works wonderfully. SBIE is v5.04 release is a stable, mature release.

All the below comments are for Sandboxie 5.04 RC.

Starting games from Steam does not work, I've verified this with plain old counter strike. The game briefly shows up in the sandbox running hl2.exe then it terminates without warning or error. You mentioned in the beginning when the issue was first reported this could be related to DX12 but did not provide any details since.

As for Slack, the latest slack installer (v1.2.2 MD5: a2eeedf797796ee298980f49416aa26b) does not work either (just downloaded and tried to install in a brand new, empty sandbox). The error I'm seeing is:
SBIE2224 Sandboxed program has crashed: SlackSetup.exe

I don't expect MS to call you but given that there were Win10 builds months before the actual RTM I would have expected to see a more mature version of sandboxie sooner.

I'm happy to provide logs or whatever you need to resolve the issues if you can tell me where Sandboxie stores debug information.

This post is a FYI kind of post to Sandboxie users. I read the Release notes for Firefox 41.0.1, one of the fixes is for potential hangs with the Flash plugin. This past few days, I have had that happen 3 or 4 times while using my XP. None in W7 but I don't keep Flash as an installed program in W7. So, if you had any problem lately with Flash running Firefox sandboxed, updating Firefox to 41.0.1 should fix the issue.

Yes, it's a command for the Sandboxie.ini configuration. An overview can be found here:

Can anyone decipher this statement? What does it mean, and where do you 'apply' it.

Lots of programs don't work (Steam, Slack, probably many others) and it seems you're just taking stabs in the dark trying to fix it.
