I am having an issue with Sandboxie not working on the latest build of Windows 10. Every time I try to start a program in a sandbox, I get the following error.
I understand that Sandboxie requires extensive work in order to function when a new version of Windows is made, but I have seen Sandboxie work on Windows 10 with Firefox, and that is what I am trying to sandbox. How can I resolve this? I have uninstalled and reinstalled Sandboxie multiple times with no luck.
Sandboxie 4.20 is not compatible with Windows 10.
You will have to wait until it is. The next release(5.01), currently in beta testing, will have support Windows 10. There are a known issues with Windows 10, some of them have been fixed, some of them are still pending.
It is worth pointing out the following about the current 5.01 release of SBIE.
SBIE Beta v5 does not support Windows Metro Apps or the Edge browser at this time. You will need to change your default web browser in Win 10 from Edge to something else.
