Sandboxie Support

The reason I want to do this is because VS2017 has so many components and a lot of them runs in the background even if I'm not using it. Surely I can run it in a VM but that would create too much overhead (addition hard drive space for another Windows installation, addition RAM for Windows running i...

I'm trying to install an IME into a sandbox to try it out without success - I'm still interested in if it can be achieved but that's not what I'm trying to ask here right now. During this process, I found that if I change the Language Bar setting inside the sandbox, it would affect my real OS. Open ...

Hello everyone, it seems I've found some sort of workaround for this issue.

1. Open the "Properties" window of the program executable (.exe) file.
2. Try run the program again.

I know this sounds pretty stupid... just give it a try - Right click - Properties.

Not trying to be rude but let me repeat myself: There's no perfect workaround unless you're willing to create a full duplicate. And I've already explained the reason: from their (programs running in sandbox) point of view, they are not running from their installation directory . From your experience...

@RooJ I have tried something like that before, it doesn't really work well and that's why I'm making this feature request. This kind of workarounds have problems: Registry files are not so large - so not really a problem. User data folder could be large depends on the software you use and the way it...

Use case: Create a Parent Sandbox Sandbox-Parent and install a Web Browser inside it. Once the installation is finalized, in most cases the Parent Sandbox container should be made READ ONLY (but don't force it). Create child sandbox Sandbox-Child1 with Sandbox-Parent as its parent. When reading file...

Hi Barb, I've confirmed that copying the .ttf files inside my steam Sandbox's C:\Windows\Fonts does lead to font renders correctly in-game, so the workaround does fixes this specific problem. However, there could be problems. For example: In ONE Sandbox, if an application loads "font.ttf", and anoth...

I'm running Sandboxie 6.20 on Windows 7 SP1 x64. Copying the .ttf to C:\Windows\Fonts isn't really an option as the other user described , there could be fonts with conflict file names. Here's my Sandboxie settings for "Steam" sandbox if you care: [APP_Steam] Enabled=y ConfigLevel=7 BlockNetworkFile...

I've noticed that when running some programs (mostly games) that loads external font, the font won't load. For example, I was just playing Portal: Still Alive (a community made Portal mod released today) and found some in-game font is missing, like the cross-hair shows as a upper case letter "Q". I'...

I'm running Sandboxie 5.20 on Windows 7 SP1 x64 . I'm not running any AntiVirus Product. Which game doesn't matter, at least every single NScripter game I have (I can't provide them though as they're not free, but I'm sure you can find some free/demo game made with Nscripter online) would crash at s...

Games made with Nscripter engine (http://www.nscripter.com/) would crash when running in sandbox. They don't crash right at the beginning, but crashes when performing some action like save/load game. I can not provide the game itself but I have one of the crash dump attached. I've tested more than o...

I don't know if this helps, but I managed to reproduce this behavior and found a workaround. If the program is created in the forced folder (eg: extracted from archive) the program can not run by double-click (can via right-click menu) But if I unmount and re-mount the drive (the entire drive is set...
