Release Notes
This update introduces improvements to stability, compatibility, and debugging tools, addressing several reported issues affecting various applications and sandbox configurations.
This release also includes a rework of CreateDesktop handling, which addresses various issues encountered with browsers and browser-based applications when running within Sandboxie. These changes should result in improved stability and functionality for affected software. Furthermore, a missing hook for NtQueryInformationByName has been implemented to enhance overall system compatibility.
Several bugs have been resolved in this update. An issue where the Sandboxie Plus data folder was not functioning correctly after updating to version 1.15.5 has been fixed. Additionally, crashes affecting Adobe Acrobat Reader when used within an Application Compartment box have been resolved.
Compatibility issues with Viber have also been fixed, ensuring that the software no longer crashes upon launch within Sandboxie. Users of qutebrowser will benefit from a fix that now allows the browser to run properly in a sandboxed environment. A problem preventing applications from launching when ApiTrace was enabled in version 1.15.5 has also been resolved. Lastly, a critical fix has been implemented to prevent blue screen errors (BSoD) when using OpenWndStation=y on Windows 10 with applications that call CreateDesktopW/A.
This release provides key stability and usability improvements for Sandboxie Plus, ensuring better compatibility across a range of applications.
