This build fixed many issues, and adds a new functionality: "BreakoutProcess=program.exe" which allows to preset programs to be able to escape a sandbox, hence this is a feature rather for compartmentalization than security. But in the way it is implemented, a breakout process will be captured by another sandbox if it is configured as a forced process for it. So a possibly security related use case would be to have a box dedicated to run your web browser only, where it is forced, and have it configured as a breakout process for all other boxes or globally. In this scenario, no matter what boxed or unboxed application starts a browser, it will always run in the browser box.

This new feature is enabled only for certified project supporters, if I reach 250 patrons it will be made available to all users, please consider supporting the development of Sandboxie-Plus: https://www.patreon.com/DavidXanatos

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.
