Release ( 5.46.0) Changelog
Added
- Sandboxie now strips particularly problematic privileges from sandboxed system tokens
-- with those a process could atempt to bypass the sandbox isolation (thanks Diversenok)
-- old legacy behavior can be enabled with "StripSystemPrivileges=n" (absolutely NOT Recommended) - added new isolation options "ClosePrintSpooler=y" and "OpenSmartCard=n"
-- those resources are open by default but for a hardened box its desired to close them - added print spooler filter to prevent printers from being set up outside the sandbox
-- the filter can be disabled with "OpenPrintSpooler=y" - added overwrite prompt when recovering an already existing file
- added "StartProgram=", "StartService=" and "AutoExec=" options to the SandMan UI
- added more compatybility templates (thanks isaak654)
Changed
- Changed Emulated SCM behavior, boxed services are no longer by default started as boxed system
-- use "RunServicesAsSystem=y" to enable the old legacy behavior
-- Note: sandboxed services with a system token are still sandboxed and restricted
-- However not granting them a system token in the first place removes possible exploit vectors
-- Note: this option is not compatible with "ProtectRpcSs=y" and takes precedence! - Reworked dynamic IPC port handling
- Improved Resource Monitor status strings
Fixed
- fixed a critical issue that allowed to create processes outside the sandbox (thanks Diversenok)
- fixed issues with dynamic IPC port handling that allowed to bypass IPC isolation
- fixed issue with ipc tracing
- fixed CVE-2019-13502 "\RPC Control\LSARPC_ENDPOINT" is now filtered by the driver (thanks Diversenok)
-- this allowed some system options to be changed, to disable filtering use "OpenLsaEndpoint=y" - fixed hooking issues SBIE2303 with chrome, edge and possibly others
- fixed failed check for running processes when performing snapshot operations
- fixed some box option checkboxes were not properly initialized
- fixed unavailable options are not properly disabled when sandman is not connected to the driver
- fixed MSI instalelr issue, not being able to create "C:\Config.Msi" folder on windows 20H2
- added missing localization to generic list commands
- fixed issue with "iconcache_*" when runngin sandboxed explorer

This is a maintenance release it does not bring any major new features but resolves a myriad of various bugs including a BSOD issue when "Core isolation" was enabled and a major compatibility bug with windows 10 build 2004 and later.
It also brings a few minor +UI Improvements and an entirely new set of Icons.
For Windows 7 unfortunately the signing process did not returned a working driver, a solution is being worked on.
Therefor, for the time being please download the "Provisional Windows 7 Drivers.zip" package and provide the driver to the setup when prompted for.
If you have issues with an update installation, just uninstall the previous version keeping the sandboxie.ini and reinstall the new build.

This build resolves many issues with the last plus release, as well as updates many components.
It is now being compiled with Visual Studio 2019 using Qt 5.15.1.
Also the installer has been changed to use Inno Setup 6.
Therefore it is necessary to manually uninstall the previous build and clean install the new release.
For windows 7 users the provisional driver is now distributed separately, during install the setup will prompt to provide the required driver file which is to be downloaded and unpacked manually.
For the classical Sandboxie build please see the previous release: https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/releases/tag/v0.5.0
Changelog
Added
- Added simple view mode
Changed
- Updated SandMan UI to use Qt5.15.1
Fixed
- fixed crash issue with progress dialog
- fixed progress dialog cancel button not wokong for update checker
- fixed issue around NtQueryDirectoryFile when deleting sandbox content
- fixed dark theme in the notification window
- fixed issue with disable force pograms tray menu

This build is a major milestone in the development of Sandboxie, it marks the first open source release that has a driver properly signed for windows 10 and 8.
For windows 7 unfortunately the signing process did not returned a working driver, a solution is being worked on.
Therefor please NOTE that due to this the "for windows 7" installers include the old provisionally signed driver for the time being.
If you have issues with an update installation, just uninstall the previous version keeping the sandboxie.ini and reinstall the new build.
The new SandMan UI finally reached full feature parity with the old legacy UI, it has a new interactive notification window and brings many new features improving on many aspects of Sandboxie-Plus, the UI has a myriad of usability improvements. The snapshot management has been greatly improved as have been the debug options for tracing and resolving compatibility issues. The process start warning mechanism has been extended to a fully fledged system wide process start blocker, that now accepts executable names as well as folders. And last but not least this build also brings an optional Updater mechaism to keep Sandboxie (Plus and Legacy) up to date.
You can support my work through donations, any help will be greatly appreciated.

This build fixes many bugs and introduces a lot of new debugging facilities.
Important Note:
The SbieDrv.sys driver must be signed, and since the appropriate certificates are prohibitively expensive, I head to use a leaked code signing certificate I found laying around the Internets. This means some anti malware applications wrongfully flag it as potentially dangerous or a virus.
If you want SandboxiePlus to get a proper EV-Code Signing Certificate please support the project through donations. You can donate via paypal at https://xanasoft.com/ or patreon https://www.patreon.com/DavidXanatos

-- FireFox Quantum, access to windows FontCachePort for compatybility with windows 7 - added experimental debug option "OriginalToken=y" which lets sandboxed processes retain their original unrestricted token
-- This option is comparable with "OpenToken=y" and is intended only for testing and debugging, it BREAKS most SECURITY guarantees (!) - added debug option "NoSandboxieDesktop=y" it disables the desktop proxy mechanism
-- Note: without an unrestricted token with this option applications wont be able to start - added debug option "NoSysCallHooks=y" it disables the sys call processing by the driver

-- use ini option DebugTrace=y to enable
Changed

- now by default sbie's application manifest hack is disabled, as it causes problems with version checking on windows 10

Fixed
- fixed issue with disabling some restriction settings failed
