In some computers you have to disable Flash Protected mode in order for Flash to work properly in your sandboxed browser. As a workaround, you might like to try that to see if it helps.

There is no protected mode for Flash in Cyberfox x64, Bo, because protected mode doesn't exist in x64 flash implementations.

Hi bo,

to my knowledge Protected Mode simply does not exist for 64-bit flash, it never has.

The instructions reveal this as well.
You can disable Protected Mode in Flash 11.3 and above by adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file located in one of these locations:

(Windows 32bit) C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
(Windows 64bit) C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash
SysWOW64 is the System32 for Windows x64 actually, whereas the actual 64-bit files are located in System32. It's weird, I know. So if you disable PM in SysWOW64 on Windows x64, you are actually going to disable PM for 32-bit Flash.

Protected Mode disable did not help. This issue appeared only in Cyberfox 34.0. The same as this. But Flash Player works fine in Firefox

If anyone would know how to configure/force Sandboxie to play the flash in Cyberfox I would appreciate it!
