Sandboxie Plus 1.0.6 added the ability to run Win32 store apps in App Compartment mode, but it doesn't cover UWP apps yet.

Right-click options in Windows 11 are missing
from sandboxie.
I haven't looked into it yet, but I would assume that Windows's own file/registry virtualization used for UWP Apps may be an issue.
To be honest the entire modern side of windows 10 is something I try to avoid as much as possible, hence it kinda have negative priority.
And we have enough windows 10 bugs not related to UWP.
But that said, it surly can be added just idk. when there will be free time to spent on that.

Could you please add a feature to apply to every UWP app without repeatedly adding ForceProcess or ForceFolder?

@DavidXanatos do you have an estimation when we will have this feature?

There is no ETA on this its not high priority
from sandboxie.
A contributor certificate in exchange for a pull request to provide initial UWP compatibility would definitely be helpful.

Any updates on this? I saw somewhere that you could possibly install through PowerShell but I can’t find it now. Would be incredibly helpful to install or run UWP apps in this.

I wonder why this is low priority, as more and more programs are moving to Microsoft Store Apps.
This is especially frustrating for more and more programs that can't be installed without the Store and therefore cannot be sandboxed at all (pretty famous example: Xodo PDF Reader, running the .exe in a Sandbox get's me a SharedLibrary.dll Error)
from sandboxie.
I'm surprised this hasn't been explored in more depth already, seeing as how much overlap there is in both goal and execution of Sandboxie and UWPs. The reason UWPs don't work sandboxed is because they are built around the AppContainer format, which itself is a Windows sandbox (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/secauthz/appcontainer-isolation). I'm guessing there's something about the AppContainer sandbox that doesn't like to run inside another software sandbox like SBIE.
On a related note, Adobe Acrobat has a setting under Preferences > Security (Enhanced) > Sandbox Protection > Run in AppContainer. If you enabled this setting, then try to open a PDF in Protected View in Sandboxie, you should get an error. Opening it outside of Sandboxie should not throw an error.
It would be cool if AppContainers/UWPs were supported, especially since Microsoft is pushing for this to be the standard format for executables moving forward. Older Win32 apps can be recompiled to operate inside AppContainers with relatively little effort, so I expect them to become more and more ubiquitous as time goes on.
EDIT: I know Sandboxie has configs like dropAppContainerToken
and fakeAppContainerToken
, but it was unclear to me from the documentation whether the term was actually referring to MS AppContainers, or whether it was being used as an alias for SBIE App Compartments...

from sandboxie.
Wait... UWP apps are mostly sandboxed by windows already.
