How to report problems with Sandboxie

Regards,

Thank you. I was only trying to install the program (Clipboard Master) in a sandbox in order to try it out.

I am getting the same issue with practically any kind of .msi file.

It never used to be a problem in the past. There is some kind of issue with the latest version(s) of Sandboxie.

IME it has been a problem for a long time. I  now use Shadow Explorer for testing software if it fails to install in Sandboxie. I use Win 10 and tried its inbuilt VM, but I prefer Shadow Explorer.

Hi Jon, and all,

If you are using MSI installers, please refer to the Known Issues section:
https://www.sandboxie.com/KnownConflicts#Installing%20programs

Regards,

Is there a more technical explanation why MSI installers stopped working? Did something change in Windows? The MSI installers that used to work (half a year ago) now do not work anymore.

Any chance for a fix ?

Simply telling that there is an issue is not sufficient.  And being able to install a program in the sandbox is of course VERY important, since Sandboxie is made especially for testing potentially dangerous programs.

Also, there is no problem at all with MSI installations with Sandboxie under my old Windows 7, so this MUST be possible under Windows 10.

OK, I reformulate: Sandboxie is made especially for running potentially dangerous programs.

Differemce ?

Educated guess; NO!
