Hello,

It's not a bug, you should manually delete any template=WindowsFontCache, template=Windows10CoreUI, Template=FireFix_for_Win7 reference from your C:\Windows\Sandboxie.ini

The developer introduced a new cleanup functionality in Plus UI, but not in the classic Sandboxie edition.

I'm reading all the changelogs and I didn't know that :/
There is also Template=FireFix_for_Win7 that seems to be superfluous now.

Under [GlobalSettings] there are 5 default Templates now:

Template=7zipShellEx
Template=WindowsRasMan
Template=WindowsLive
Template=AdobeAcrobatReader
Template=OfficeLicensing

And in a fresh Sandbox there are 6 default templates:

Template=qWave
Template=BlockPorts
Template=LingerPrograms
Template=Chrome_Phishing_DirectAccess
Template=Firefox_Phishing_DirectAccess
Template=AutoRecoverIgnore

I recommend deleting any leftover templates.

I'm going to reopen this issue to request the extension of the clean-up functionality for Sandboxie Classic as well.

I'm thinking about an other approach, how about just sideline dropping missing templates, may be except local user created templates.
And perhaps only in the plus UI when you open the sandbox options check templates and show a pop up offering to remove them.
But no longer issue a SBIE message when a unknown template is encountered while parsing sandboxie.ini

Silent removal of missing templates in Classic edition (except the local ones created by users) seems quite reasonable, and could be performed before issuing SBIE1411 (triggered if the silent clean-up goes wrong).

And perhaps only in the plus UI when you open the sandbox options check templates and show a pop up offering to remove them.

I think it could be worth it.

software compatibility has the remove old settings button but only works for old TemplateReject can't that feature be extended to missing templates aswell ? and drop the Deprecated "section" in templates.ini ?
