Stop sandboxed application from detecting Sandboxie?

Post by Darxide » Fri Aug 26, 2016 4:50 pm

Can I prevent a sandboxed program from knowing that it is running inside of Sandboxie?

You don't. Sandboxie doesn't try to hide its presence, just do its job. That'd be a constant battle for them to implement and if malware doesn't want to run in a sandbox I'm that much happier...

It's not malware that I'm trying to run. It's something else where the developer decided that running their app under VM of any kind is undesirable for some unknown reasons.

That's up to each developer. Last I read about it, they were not intending to take any actions to hide its presence. It would just result in a waste of resources, time and effort of 'they do this', 'the dev does that'. An endless circle.

Sounds like you want to try and hide from a game detecting an anti cheat. Sandboxie probably wouldn't do that at best, as it would help violate there Terms of Service. If I am wrong apologies.
