On Windows 7 x64 with SB 4.04 and 4.05.1, PATH enviroment var is not defined.

On WinXP SP3 32bit with SB 4.04 OK!

On Windows 7 x64 with 3.76 and 4.02 OK!

I am not seeing this problem, or otherwise I don't understand what you're asking me to look at.

PATH is not defined on Sandbox. Tested on all four sandboxies.
without PATH many app not found like java.exe

I back to 4.02 and working without problem.

On XP, the PATH is quite different: unsandboxed vs. sandboxed

Unsandboxed cmd.exe:

Path=C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG;C:\Program Files\Support Tools\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Roxio Shared\DLLShared\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Roxio Shared\11.0\DLLShared\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Acronis\SnapAPI\;C:\Program Files\Acronis\TrueImageHome\;C:\WINNT\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files\GNU\GnuPG\pub;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager\

All but the last item in the PATH are "System Variables".
The last item is a "User Variable".

------
Sandboxed cmd.exe:

Path=C:\Program Files\Microsoft USB Flash Drive Manager.

Only "User Variables" show in my PATH, when sandboxed.

SB 4.05.01
[Edited]The "last items" I listed was only 1 item. Doh!

Interesting... I was going to say I'm not seeing any difference on XP or 64-bit 7. Sandboxie 4.04.

Then after Paul's reply about "User variables," I realized I don't have a PATH environment variable defined for the user. So I created one (System Control Panel > Advanced, etc.) with the value "Test."

Checking the Command Prompt UNsandboxed, "Test" has been appended to PATH. Sandboxed it's only "Test." I only checked on XP...

But piterkater's isn't defined at all.

Thanks for the hint Guest10. I change something about environment variables in version 4.04. I guess there is a problem with "user" variables completely overriding "system" variables. I'll check it out.

Version 4.05.02 should merge the system and user parts of the PATH like Windows does.
