@JustFax You can also uninstall the update and resume with 5.22 till things are clearing up and Sandboxie releases the non-beta 5.23.

Nothing on the https://www.sandboxie.com website (or, for that matter, this forum that I could find) mentions anything about this. Is this being addressed? When will it be fixed?

Try the search function search.php?keywords=KB4056894

... the problem?... This is very bad news, as I just recently got that feature working. I've taken the chicken's way out, however, and uninstalled KB4056894 instead, so can't answer your question. Can I suggest you start a new thread on this under the Beta program? -- jclarkw

Hi all,

i also had to install the beta version 5.23.3 because of the windows 7 update(s). Unfortunately no Office 2013 program will work in sandboxie anymore. Is the problem already known or does anyone else have the problem? Here it can be reproduced on three computers.
