Solved: Visual Studio problems
Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2016 2:32 pm
Problem after installing Visual Studio and Visual Assist in Sandboxie:
* The Properties window of a Visual Studio project:
- in Windows 7: the drop-downs don't work (you can't click on them)
- in Windows 10: Visual Studio crashes when opening the Properties window
* Visual Assist add-on: very slow typing in the source code window (4-5 characters per second)
Solved by: Sandbox Settings -> Resource access -> Window access; Add "*" (asterisk, without quotes) to the list.
(Note - this will reduce the security of your sandbox by allowing windows message communication with the outside world.)
Hopefully this'll save someone a couple of hours.
