Edit i dont use any AV engine
windows defender is turned off
I use just win firewall.

And i was instaling new beta version of SB and its same situation wit this version. I cant use SB properly.
I guess it is something in my pc win configuration or something!!!???...

Are you able to test using the following steps?

Empty the contents of the Sandbox
Drag Installation into the desired Sandbox.
Select "Run as UAC Administrator" when prompted ---> This is the step that allowed the installation to happen (otherwise, I would get the same error message that you did).
After the installation is finished, right-click on your Sandbox --> Explore Contents
Navigate the program's installation folder and create a Shortcut on the Desktop
Right-click on the new shortcut and add "-no-sandbox" at the end of the target

Hello my friends
I am thinking little about this situation and i have figure out something.
This is everything began on start off july month, but in july I was installing only some updates from windows and..............
I am uninstalled all microsoft updates dated from july this year and Voilà.............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything work perfect like when I started using SB.

I think thats was something in adobe flash security update.


I got it, I got it, I got it

BTW thnx on suggestions

I really wouldn't recommend removing Windows Updates unless as a temporary last resort. If you can identify a specific KB others may be able to reproduce and a true fix be made if required.

Looking at the screenshot I see your shortcut was made as:

Code: Select all

"C:\Sandbox\JAVOR\DefaultBox\drive\C\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe. -no-sandbox"

The extra period (.) and flag (-no-sandbox) set there would certainly cause issues and count as a problem with the shorcut.

Something more like this may have worked though I'm not sure if firefox actually supports that particular cmd flag or not?:

Code: Select all

"C:\Sandbox\JAVOR\DefaultBox\drive\C\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -no-sandbox

and for chrome based stuff it's actually

Code: Select all

--no-sandbox

Generally Browsers will function better if they exist (are installed) outside the sandbox and simply ran inside.
