[SOLUTION] SBIE 2224 error after a windows update #3291

Closed needmypandora closed 7 months ago

needmypandora commented 1 year ago

Describe what you noticed and did

I dont know if anyone else come up with this but If you are getting SBIE 2224 error and Werfault.exe opening and closing together with your programs (most probably because of a windows update) try deleting "Windows" folder in the "[BOXNAME]\drive\C\" directory. Your programs should work now.

How often did you encounter it so far?

Many times.

Affected program

Not every but some programs were affected

Download link

Not relevant

Where is the program located?

The program is installed only inside a sandbox (NOT in the real system anyway).

Expected behavior

Maybe the setup can clear "Windows" folder in a sandbox post-install?

What is your Windows edition and version?

Windows 11 Pro 22H2 22621.2215

In which Windows account you have this problem?

A local account (Administrator).

Please mention any installed security software

Defender

What version of Sandboxie are you running?

5.66.1 Classic

Is it a new installation of Sandboxie?

I recently did a new clean installation.

Is it a regression?

No.

In which sandbox type you have this problem?

I only reproduced it with Sandboxie Classic.

Can you reproduce this problem on a new empty sandbox?

My sandbox contains existing programs or data.

Did you previously enable some security policy settings outside Sandboxie?

No.

Crash dump

No response

Trace log

Sandboxie.ini configuration

Can confirm that this occurred for me as well, first I thought it had something to do with KB5030219, so after uninstalling it everything worked again.

But today the new Moment Update made it happen as well, deleting the Windows folder in the Sandbox helped.

I really dont know exactly. I should have deleted one by one but no longer have the issue.
