5.14 Released

Is this problem specific to TB?

I believe it happens with different programs in W10 after updating computer to 1607 . Read this post from Stribogh.

djkilla, PicoMonotir, to solve your issue you can do this workaround.

Is this problem specific to TB? I.e., should I add an open "{3480A401-BDE9-4407-BC02-798A866AC051} ShellServiceHostBrokerProvider" to the TB template?

Just added {3480A401-BDE9-4407-BC02-798A866AC051} to the COM Access and it worked perfectly! Now when I click a link in Thunderbird, Firefox opens. Curt, you should absolutely add {3480A401-BDE9-4407-BC02-798A866AC051} if this resolves the issue. Thanks to everyone for tracking this fix down!

I have downloaded 5.13.5 and the changes listed include: " Eliminated the SBIE2314 Canceling process SandboxieBITS.exe [xxxx / 9" - Except that it doesn't! I still get the SBIE 2314 error code and all the forum posts refer to older versions of Sandboxie. I have Windows 10 Home, 64-bit. I get he error when using Chrome Version 52.0.2743.116m. Now what?

Any comment on the SmartScreen hang described here? http://forums.sandboxie.com/phpBB3/view ... 05#p123006
Can you fix it before final version?

Do you plan to implement the same browser settings for Vivaldi that have been present for the other Browsers (e.g. access to favorites etc.)?

I just installed 5.13.6 and noticed {3480A401-BDE9-4407-BC02-798A866AC051} wasn't added. Will this be added in the final release? Without it, Firefox doesn't open when I click a link in Thunderbird.

There seems to be a problem with launching unknown executables from sandboxed Explorer window with SmartScreen on.
Windows 10 1607 Enterprise LTSB x64, fresh install of SBIE 5.13.5 with default settings. Haven't tried 5.12.
I've downloaded an unknown executable via Google Chrome, opened a sandboxed Windows Explorer window and tried to execute the file. smartscreen.exe is launched in the sandbox, but nothing appears, just a "busy" cursor. When you try manipulating the Explorer window it will hang.
Anyone else?

I don't know why smartscreen.exe is being executed by the sandboxed explorer. This doesn't happen in the host. Just block it from running with ClosedFilePath=C:\Windows\System32\smartscreen.exe

I've had this issue for a while now. When running Firefox Developer edition, no pages seem to "paint" after they are loaded. Type in a URL, hit enter, the title updates, but the page area doesn't refresh and it remains static until you either resize the window or toggle between tabs. After resize/toggling, the page area updates and the page shows fine. Any sort of navigation (eg: clicking on links) experience the same issue pretty much making it not usable for typical browsing.

I only have this issue on the development/nightly version. I prefer to use that version if possible. This could possibly mean future issues with later releases, though.

smartsceen.exe is executed on the host for me, as a child of svchost.exe -k DcomLaunch. Upon further investigation, another process is being launched after smartscreen.exe called CHXSmartScreen.exe with commandline "C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.AppRep.ChxApp_cw5n1h2txyewy\CHXSmartScreen.exe" -ServerName:App.<random> which seems to be responsible for displaying this windows which doesn't appear when sandboxed

CHXSmartScreen.exe runs with AppContainer integrity level (Modern App sandbox), which probably causes it to fail to launch in SBIE. I haven't tried your workaround, but I assume it will work.

I never see the dialog box you posted -- even outside Sandboxie. Not in my test Win 10 VM nor my regular Win 10 machine. I'm not sure what setting is preventing this. But, it looks like a Metro dialog so that explains why it isn't working in Sbie.

In Sbie, smartscreen.exe runs and I get the hang you describe. The work around will prevent explorer from locking up.

5.13.7 has been released.

I know that not many users are using PAC (Proxy Auto Config) files or Windows Proxy Auto Detect (WPAD). So you may not be very excited about this fix. But I had to rewrite a fair amount of low-level IPC driver code to fix this issue and it affects all OS's. So we need Beta testers to try this version out to make sure that something else didn't break.

Thanks!

Installed it and so far so good. Windows 7 64bit. Browsers are Firefox and Palemoon (the Tycho alpha/beta2 version)

I will try to get this into the next beta 5.13.8.

Same here (W7 and XP) .
