New Beta [SOLVED]

Hello folks,
when can we expect a new Beta of Sandboxie (5.25?)? Fact of the matter is that even with official v5.24 Sandboxie performs VERY sluggish upon closing web-browsers (Opera, Chrome) and their associated programs after closing an internet-session (here on a LENOVO-Laptop with all the latest Windows10-updates) and for instance CNN-Videos will not play at all ("Something went wrong during native playback") - while playing like a charm outside the sandbox.

greetings
TomTom

Thanks for the new Beta! Seems as if it would make opening and closing browsers a LITTLE less sluggish - but still a far cry from where Sandboxie has been in the "good old days", before some dubious Windows OS-"upgrades".

Not sure about this - if it's good news or bad, that is! On one hand it's kind of nice to know about a possible culprit (MFDemuxer), on the other hand I'm a bit devastated to learn that this "known issue" has been unresolved, probably since Opera 45/49, which sounds like kind of forever.
