Running Opera 15 sandboxed doesn't work. For example, trying to go to sandboxie.com just loads forever. Using Win 7 x64.

I tried to reproduce the problem but Opera Next seems to install and run correctly in the sandbox.
Tested version 4.02 and 4.03.02.

Strange, when I ran it in Virtualbox it worked fine, but on my real system it doesn't work.
I also tried with fresh sandboxie.ini but no success. Also removed exiting Opera settings in appdata.

It seems that Opera won't spawn any child processes when sandboxed for some reason.
I used Process Monitor to track Opera when ran sandboxed, and it showed many buffer overflows from Opera.

This problem may have something to do with all these lines in your log

Code: Select all

\Sessions\1\BaseNamedObjects\Mutex, mAH, Process $00000f14, API $75dee743 
This indicates some security software or other "supervisory" type of program, for which Sandboxie has no compatibility settings.

Do you use any software that might fit this description?

It seems that there is some conflict with Sandboxie and Comodo Firewall when trying to open Opera. Uninstalling Comodo solved the problem.
