Advice Request Sandboxie and RDP

[Trooper]

Hi folks,

Was a long time user of Sandboxie many years ago. Want to add it back to my arsenal if at all possible. I just downloaded the latest version 1.0.20. I wanted to run RDP in a sandbox. I am running Windows 11 Enterprise and I would like to run RDP sessions in a Sandbox. I recall years ago just adding %windir%\system32\mstsc.exe into Forced Programs and it would work. I just tried that today and it does not seem to be working.

The below is what I am seeing.

Please let me know if this is still possible and what I am missing. Thanks!

Try opening the Classic UI-- C:\Program Files\Sandboxie Plus --scroll to SbieCtrl.exe and double-click. There you can add it under Program Start/Forced Programs like you used to. When the Classic UI opens in the system icon tray area, right-click on the icon, then left-click on Show Window, then right-click on Default Box (or whatever box you're using) and click "Sandbox Settings" in the little menu there.

If you're mainly using Plus, I would then exit out of the Classic UI if you don't need it anymore. I found by way of the learning curve that some things like adding to the browser template ( like access to cookies, bookmarks, etc) is best done within the Classic UI

Thanks to you both. I will check this out tomorrow when I am back in the office. @bjm_ Looks as if you are using Sandboxie with Edge? Any issues doing that? I always thought it worked best with Firefox. Times have changed I see.

Got it thanks. It's been years since I've used it. Time to re-learn it all over again.

Tried what you guys said, but still getting the CredentialBroker.exe error. Any ideas?

Curious, what security program/s?
Can you launch browser/s?
Did you make any changes to [DefaultBox] settings?
Are you using Windows Sandbox?
Hopefully, DavidXanatos will chime in over on Wilders.

ESET ENDPOINT Security.

Did not try to Sandbox a browser yet.
No I actually just created a new one. Maybe I will try DefaultBox and see how that goes.
Yes, hopefully he does. Thanks.

MS Edge is running fine in the Sandbox.

ESET ENDPOINT Security.

Can you try disable ESET...as test.
Can you try Create New Box with less Isolation...as test.

Sure give me a little bit. Juggling multiple things at the moment.

No rush. I'm just guessing.
