Sandboxie Support

Hello Barb,

that's a clear answer now. It explains all. Thank you very much.

I think it would be a good to have this information (that SandboxieBits.exe will work in Windows 7 and will not work in past Win 7) on your page https://www.sandboxie.com/ServicePrograms

Hello,

still the same with 5.23 beta 3 and Window 10 Build 16299.192.

Only to kindly remind you of this issue. I understand that there are higher priorities.

Hi!

so after one month of last posting and release of 5.22: Any news or plans to change this behaviour?

Still the same with Windows 10 1709 and Sandboxie 5.22.

Hi!

Any news?

Still the same behavior after update to Windows 10 1709 and Sandboxie Beta 5.21.7

Please don't see it as chrome issue. It's an issue with BITS service and it can be reproduced simple without chrome. In the meantime I went some steps further reproducing this. I did a total clean install of windows 7 professional SP1, with clean install of sandboxie 5.20, all settings at default, w...

Hello again,

still waiting for an answer. I reduce my question to the following:

Open a command prompt window (simply Windows cmd) in sandboxie and call "bitsadmin /list". Is it expected to run without error or not? Is there a difference between Windows 10 and Windows 7?

Regards,
ICB

PS: Under Windows 7 "bitsadmin /list" in sandboxie runs without error, ending in "Listed 0 job(s)." The same output like without sandboxie. Under Windows 10 "bitsadmin /list" in sandboxie runs in "Unable to connect to BITS - 0x8007042d". The settings for drop rights are disabled as they are for defa...

Thanks again for the fast response. It's not a Chrome issue. It's a question of BITS and sandboxie and I can reproduce it very simple: As described, open a command prompt in sandboxie and type "bitsadmin /list". This lists the status of current bits jobs. For that the bits service gets triggered by ...

Now I found the difference between my Windows 10 and my Windows 7 installation and the reason why BITS Error 0x80070005 was only logged in Windows 7. You are right, calling BITS client inside Sandboxie is supposed to fail by default. I can see this in my Windows 10 installation. I testet this by ope...

Yes, this makes sense and I expected something like that.

So it's all ok for me. Thank you for your support.

It would be nice, but not necessary, to understand why I don't have this error logged in Windows 7 (same chrome and sandboxie settings).

Sorry for the late reply. No, I am not using drop rights. And I don't think this error prevents me from doing anything with Chrome. It seems that Chrome works well with Sandboxie. But, as written previously, it seems that Chrome tries and has not the permission to setup one or more background transf...

Hi Barb! Thank you for the quick reply. Yes, I use some 3rd party extensions (AdBlock, Ghostery) but I got this error also without these extensions. I get this only under Windows 10 64bit. Currently it's Creators Update, but it happened also versions before. I share the same Chrome installation with...
