Release v1.13.0 / 5.68.0

Release Notes

This is an experimental build it reworks and streamlines the hooking mechanism around SCM related functions which should improve compatibility with newer windows versions. The improved hooking mechanism allows for API call tracing without the need for LogAPI.dll.
This build adds compatibility with windows 11 insider build 26040, 26052 and later, and changes the way the driver handles offset dependent kernel object modifications, the new mechanism allows an offset configuration to be loaded from the registry such that it is possible to update the offsets without rebuilding the driver.
To improve system stability Sandboxie will no longer try to use old known offsets on newer yet not known kernel builds, except when the pc participates in the windows insider program, instead it will disable the token based security isolation and issue SBIE1207 indicating the insecure fallback mode of operation.

Release v1.12.5 / 5.67.5

Release Notes

The latest update brings notable improvements and fixes to Sandboxie-Plus.
Key enhancements include the integration of Date & Time display in the Sbie Messages tab, and a streamlined the box creation process, allowing for more versatile box types. Among the various fixes, issues with sandboxed processes and stability concerns in SandMan-v1.12.3 have been addressed, ensuring a more reliable and efficient user experience.

We also announce a change in our update policy: automated update download & installation now requires an active supporter certificate to use the stable channel. Users on the preview channel with all the experimental potentially buggy test builds can still use auto update without a certificate. Users on the stable channel from now on will instead receive a update notification guiding them to our manually download page.

Release v1.12.3 / 5.67.3

Release Notes

This build brings a lot of usability improvements, most notably the ability to auto force all removable media (Requires a supporter certificate).

In the settings, exceptions can be specified, based on the volume serial number to exclude selected devices from forced sandboxing.

This build also enhances on the global hotkeys, two new hotkeys "Alt + Break" have been added to bring the sandman window in front with the top most flag set, and "Ctrl + Alt + F" to toggle disabling of forced processes, furthermore the terminate all hotkey "Shift + Break" (panic hotkey) has been improved, individual sandboxes can be configured to be excluded from a blanket global terminate all command, however when the panic hotkey is invoked 3 times with < 1 sec between presses it will terminate all boxed processes, no exceptions.

Also worth mentioning is an improvement to the service handling which allows to install and run the GOG launcher sandboxed in a reduced isolation box with the following configuration:

UnrestrictedSCM=y
RunServicesAsSystem=y
NoSecurityIsolation=y
Template=RpcPortBindingsExt

Further work is ongoing to make GOG work in a standard sandbox.
