Changing no settings, which is more secure: Comodo sandbox, or Sandboxie?
Sandboxie but tweaked. default setting has some adnormal behavior , for example a ransomware is isolated but still allowed to run and lock your system until you close sandboxie via hard-reboot; issue should be fixed in future release by a killswitch keyboard shortcut.
By default Sandboxie will create a sandboxed file store. The software will then copy any files the application uses, like the exe and dll’s and data modules into the sandboxed file store. It will also create and contain any registry changes, file changes and created files. Thus if you opened and application that changed a registry setting, you created files with this app and you opened a virus infected file with this app. All the changes, virus and all would be trapped/contained in the sandbox file store.
