I thought this was hilarious:

Lol, do not use boxie for nuclear missile :ROFLMAO:

Anyway, would you recommend this software? I was searching some sort of free, lightweight sandbox, like Tinywall is for firewall but to isolate Firefox from random crap, is this it?

If you want a sandbox you can use many ways:
Windows sandbox
Virtual machine / Hyper-V

But if you care about specially sandboxing the browser, you should just use a browser which do it by default like Chromium and also Chrome and new Edge.

Personally I wouldn't trust in this software as it's integrate itself in the system (driver) and now is owned by new guys.

VM machine to browse the internet is a bit overkill...
Chromium, lacks all the nice addons from Firefox
My version of Windows is 1809 so no sandbox

So there is no sandbox you can trust?

If a VM is overkill, use Hyper-V

Which add-ons did you miss? Most can be easily replaced

Wo why just don't upgrade to latest windows version? It doesn't make sense to use outdated versions.

Sandboxie is now open-source, the new developer is one of the former developers from Invincea/Sophos, more details below:
Hello fellow Sandboxie enthusiasts. I think it's about time I introduce myself to this forum. I am Tom, one of the principal kernel developers that worked on Sandboxie for Invincea and Sophos for about 5 years. My main focus was to support windows 10 and various modernization enhancements like the 64 bit re-architecture (back in version 4.x a few years ago) among many others. Yes, I'm the guy that introduced Sandboxie to windows 10 and 64 bit chrome. And I supported all the fast ring versions up to the previous one or two. Curt took over that job when I left Sophos about 9 months ago.

I'm here to say that Sandboxie is not going away anytime soon. I can at least volunteer my efforts to support the windows 10 fast ring for the future versions of windows and other “hard issues” with various browsers. I plan to post fixes here: sandboxie/sandboxie. And hopefully, with the help of others we can keep Sandboxie alive and well for years to come.
