WeMeet (wemeetapp.exe) can not open after update to version 3.7.9 and newer #1842

Open Stargazer1209 opened 2 years ago

Stargazer1209 commented 2 years ago

What happened?

WeMeet installed in "DeafaultBox" auto updated to version 3.7.9 upon opening and it can not be launched since then. Every time when I tried to open it, the main window would not show up and no icon would appear in the taskbar. As I can see in Sandboxie Manager, the "wemeetapp.exe" would terminate after it launched several seconds. I have tried to completely uninstall sandboxie plus and reinstall to see if it would work, sadly not.

The exact same symptoms as you，I tried a olderer version, it will update automaticaly to a new version but older than 3.7.9 and it can be open once because it will update at next start.

I found that tencent added anti sandboxie measures after wemeet version 3.6.6. If you want to run it in sandboxie, you can do it as follows.

  1. First install wemeet in a sandbox.

  2. The file "wemeetapp. exe" must be moved to the target path outside the sandbox, such as: In the sandbox, wemeet is installed in "c:\wemeet\", then move "wemeetapp.exe" to "c:\wemeet\" of the physical machine.

3.The other files remain in the sandbox and do not need to be moved.

  1. Use sandboxie to create a shortcut for "wemeetapp. exe" and run it.

This is not a good method, but it works. Tencent is really disgusting.

I followed this procedure, and Tencent Meeting doesn't work anymore.

I just downloaded the latest version of WeMeet (3.20.5.478) from Tencent's official website and tested that this method is still effective. You must have done something wrong yourself.

I can confirm that the workaround actually works. The key is to move instead of copy the executable file. You have to delete the original one in the sandbox.

It works for VooV Meeting（by clicking the .exe, but not the .lnk）, but for the Tencent Meeting, it doesn't work.

Versions:

OS:

For the Tencent Meeting:

In XXX\Sandbox\Tencent\drive\E\腾讯会议，there are three folders: \1.1.5.412, \3.23.3.403, \3.24.3.406.

In E\腾讯会议, there is only the wemeetapp.exe。

When I start it by the 腾讯会议.lnk, it says:

Sandboxie Start: Counld not invoke program: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\程序\腾讯会议\腾讯会议.lnk" System Error Code: 操作已被用户取消。(1223)

The target of the link is "XXX\Sandboxie-Plus\SandMan.exe /box:Tencent "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\程序\腾讯会议\腾讯会议.lnk"

When I start it by wemeetapp.exe, it says:

程序初始化异常：Dll资源加载失败，请重新安装程序。

For the Voov Meeting:

When I start it by the VooV Meeting.lnk, it says:

Sandboxie Start: Counld not invoke program: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\VooV Meeting.lnk" System Error Code: 操作已被用户取消。(1223)

The target of the link is XXX\Sandboxie-Plus\SandMan.exe /box:Tencent "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\VooV Meeting.lnk"

However, when I start it by the voovmeetingapp.exe, it runs as expected.
