Sandboxie-Plus v1.3.0 - Pre-release
https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/releases/tag/v1.3.0

This test build adds 2 new isolation mechanisms to increase security of hardened boxes, hence boxes previously designated hardened will now be downgraded in the UI to normal, and the hardened icons will be used to the new box type.
The first isolation mechanism "SysCallLockDown=y" limits the amount of ntdll syscalls which are executed with the original process token to a list of known approved syscalls
The second isolation mechanism "RestrictDevices=y" leverages rule specificity to limit the accessible driver/device endpoints to a list of known required endpoints plus whatever the user opens using the resource access rules.

Note: The new enhanced security features require a supporter certificate.

Note: Please note that the installers for this test build are not signed.

If you have issues with an update installation, just uninstall the previous version keeping the sandboxie.ini and reinstall the new build.
You can support the project through donations, any help will be greatly appreciated.


As far as I'm aware. DavidXanatos does not monitor MalwareTips.
Maybe, post over on Wilders: Sandboxie-Plus v1.3.0

Also for improved reliability you can check the downloads on the project homepage: Downloads | Sandboxie-Plus where only known good builds are posted about a week or two after the github release.
