Since having updated my Windows 10 to Version 1809 each Sandboxie-Start of FirefoxPortable (or ChromePortable or SeamonkeyPortable) requires Admin-Password - is there some kind of workaround?

1 - Sandboxie 5.30, Windows 10 x64 bit 1809 (or Windows 10 x64 bit 1903 - I tested both)
2 - Portebleapps-FirefoxPortable
3 - Avira Antivirus Free (actualized version)
4 - Each time I start FirefoxPortable.exe (Portebleapps-FirefoxPortable)
5 - it occurs in a new sandbox with default settings
6 - UAC-message ("Möchten Sie zulassen, daß durch diese App Änderungen an Ihrem Gerät durchgeführt werden - Ja/Nein")
Hi stef,
Can I also get a copy of your Sandboxie configuration file?
Configure--> Edit configuration
Copy-paste the contents here
Added content: Since you are on Windows 10 1903, please try the latest beta, which addressed permission issues:
Sbie beta version 5.31.2
Thanks!

Hi stef,
Thanks, the configuration doesn't show me anything weird (which is good). I tested the scenario, and even if I allow it to run as administrator, this program doesn't start for me in the Sandbox.
This is what worked for me:
Install Firefox Portable directly in the Sandbox, ignore the autorecover prompts. When the installation completes, close it (don't select Run Firefox...). After that, navigate to the Sandboxed location where you installed it and launch it.

No, it didn't work for me:
I installed Firefox Portable (PortableApps, newest version) in the Sandbox, ignored the autorecover prompts, closed the installation without selecting "Run Firefox", navigated to the Sandboxed location where I installed and launched FirefoxPortable.
Still I get the UAC-message ("Möchten Sie zulassen, daß durch diese App Änderungen an Ihrem Gerät durchgeführt werden - Ja/Nein").
Same behaviour when using Sbie beta version 5.31.2 - at least while on Windows 10 1809...
Hi stef,
Please try running the Firefox executable, not Firefox Portable app:
for example:
C:\Sandbox\<username>\<sandboxName>\drive\C\Users\<username>\Downloads\FirefoxPortable\App\Firefox64
That will not trigger UAC inside or outside Sbie.
