"NoScript" Add-On for Firefox - Settings Needed in Sandboxie?

This should work:

OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\storage-sync.sqlite*

Thanks!  I recently installed two other recommended add-ons:

1) AdBlocker Ultimate

2) Privacy Badger

Anybody know anything about these?

In general, is there a library of Sandboxie-releavant information about Firefox Add-Ons somewhere? -- jclarkw

You can try to find the UUID for the addon in Firefox:

about:config > extensions.webextensions.uuids > find the UUID of the addon

Add an OpenFilePath like this:

OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\storage\default\moz-extension+++UUID*

Thanks for this is a very helpful general tip:

>>OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\storage\default\moz-extension+++UUID*<<

Follow-Up Question:  Is there a simple way to add specifications like this through the Sandboxie GUI (e.g., Sandbox/Default Box/Sandbox Settings/Resource Access/File Access/etc...), or is it best to just edit the settings directly?  If directly, then does it matter where in the settings such a specification should go? -- jclarkw

I always edit the file "Sandboxie.ini" directly. The line should be inserted in the section of the sandbox running the required program, e.g. directly below the line containing the sandbox name [SandboxName].

"OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\storage-sync.sqlite*",

though without the trailing asterisk (which symbol I assume you are using to indicate missing or inserted material, not as a required symbol, correct?), through the following GUI steps:

Sandbox/Default Box/Sandbox Settings/Resource Access/File Access/Direct Access/firefox.exe/Add/then browse to "%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ljldmg0t.default-release\storage-sync.sqlite".

(Of course I couldn't have done that without your telling me what file to look for!)

It came out in the Sandboxie Configuration file as follows:

"OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ljldmg0t.default-release\storage-sync.sqlite", so I guess I was right about the trailing asterisk here.

Trying to duplicate your more general tip above, 

"OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\*\storage\default\moz-extension+++UUID*",

I was able to find the UUID for AdBlock Ultimate and stick it into a new line in the Configuration File as follows:

"OpenFilePath=firefox.exe,%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ljldmg0t.default-release\storage\default\mozextension+++be8ea8d2-9745-42a7-9e34-e8b504a3412b",

on the assumption that the "+++" is necessary but the trailing asterisk is not.

I'm not sure as yet if either is working.  I also assume that incorrect syntax will not necessarily result in an error message from Sandboxie.  I don't see any other "OpenFilePath=" lines in the existing configuration file, so I don't have any other example to imitate.  Did I follow your format correctly? -- jclarkw

I recommend to use the trailing asterisk, because an open SQLite database creates temporary files (.sqlite-shm/.sqlite-wal), these are covered by the asterisk. The asterisk is a wildcard for Sandboxie. This also means, for example, that the Firefox profile (ljldmg0t.default-release) does not need to be specified. And the "moz-extension+++" folders often have even more characters after the UUID, hence the trailing asterisk as well.

It might work without the trailing asterisks, because I think I have read once that Sandboxie adds them by itself during execution.

By the way, mozextension is written with a hyphen: moz-extension
