With this feature Sandboxie can be like an application firewall which applies the rules on a per box bases allowing the same application access to the internet in one box while blocking it in another.This has the potential to greatly improve compatibility with variouse applications. Isolation is limited to the FS minifilter as well as registry and object callbacks. This mode is intended to optimize compatibility at the cost of security, here sandboxie's token-based isolation scheme is not used.Applications running in boxes with personal data protection will see an empty PC with no user data on it. With this applying a preset rule collection all locations potentially containing personal data can be protected. With this option rules are prioritized based on their specificity (see changelog/docs for details) this way sub paths can be readable/writeable while parent parts are still protected.On the homepage, David has also introduced the new Plus features.

Sandboxie v1.0.22 / 5.55.22ĭavid wrote about version 1.0.22: This build brings a few fixes as well as a few small features, most notably support for the new Windows 11 Explorer context menu. The project is available on the GitHub Sandboxie page. David Xanatos took the released source code and developed it further as a fork. It is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. Sophos acquired Sandboxie from Invincea, which had previously acquired it from the original author, Ronen Tzur. Sandboxie was developed by Sophos for application virtualization and later released as open source (see also Sandboxie is now Open Source and this GitHub project page).
