#Sandboxie forums software#
I've also read something about software called Deep Freeze but it's kind of confusing.to me anyway. I also know that Windows has some sort of virtualization but I think it's for the "entire" Windows environment (if I'm phrasing it correctly) instead of just you just being able to use it individually like Sandboxie. I've heard of Shadow Defender but not ReHIPS.
#Sandboxie forums code#
The code was only recently released and both developers are still working on their builds. Either way, I will be testing both builds on a virtual machine before I implement it on my host OS.įor now, I would wait and see. I do like the proposed changes he wants to implement in Sandboxie Plus. So there is a chance that David's Sandboxie Plus build may also be properly signed so it won't be flagged as malware. I think there is going to be some collaboration between Tom and David. I don't have any personal experience with them so can't offer any advice on them but you should see if they fit your needs. Some commonly suggested programs that have a different approach are Shadow Defender or ReHIPS. Unfortunately there are no other alternatives to Sandboxie that have the same feature set that I know of. I'm writing to ask if anyone has used David Xanatos version of Sandboxie which is v5.40.1 (32 & 64bit). Just in case the David Xanatos version isn't deemed safe, does anyone have another alternative to Sandboxie? I would like to know whether or not it's okay to use the software since it's an unofficial version of version or just continue to use the last "official" version which is v5.33.3.
#Sandboxie forums install#
I did test install using VMware on a virtual 64bit OS and it wouldn't install basically saying that I couldn't install 32bit software on 64bit system.īasically I'm writing to ask if anyone has used David Xanatos version of Sandboxie which is v5.40.1 (32 & 64bit) and if it's safe to use outside of a virtual machine.ĭavid Xanatos Sandboxie version are located here I was able to download the 32bit but the 64bit is flagged and medium risk by Norton. I assume this means that Sophos will no longer continue creating updates to the last version of Sandboxie but have made it open source and I guess that means anyone with coding experience can create a version of Sandboxie and that isn't necessarily a good thing. Any further improvements to Sandboxie will need to be made through the open source community. All restricted features have been made completely free in this version. This is the last version of Sandboxie that Sophos will make available to the community and no further updates will be made to it. The latest version of Sandboxie (Win 7, 8.1 and 10 only) is available here. Will a Sophos pre-compiled version be made available? Last but not least, since Sophos is shutting down their license server on Jand shutting down their forum on June 2, 2020. I'm not sure if this post belongs in this section but it didn't seem to fit in anywhere else (to me anyway).
