This means that any problems that may crop up in an isolated piece of software do not spread to other areas of your system this help to protect against full system crashes, and also the spread of malware. This innovative program makes it possible to run applications in complete isolation from the rest of your system - in a sandbox. Protection for some of these problems is available in the form of antivirus and anti-malware products, but another option is to make use of Sandboxie. Browsing the internet can be fraught with problems, with drive-by downloads threatening to infect your computer with unknown malware. An unexpected program crashing can not only lead to losing the document that was open in that program, but there is also the risk that the crash will bring down Windows completely, along with any other applications that may be running at the same time. I will now use Chrome or Firefox as my default browser until Opera sort out their software compatibility with Sandboxie.It is right to exercise a degree of caution when using a computer.
I have used Opera for many years with Sandboxie using Windows XP. So until Opera sort this software bug out, all Opera users with Windows 10 will have to find another default browser if they wish to use Sandboxie. Reason ? Because Chrome and Firefox work instantly with Sandboxie in seconds, no problems. The default box stuck frozen at loading and never stopped. The red border I configured on Sandboxie was present around the white screen. White screen appeared and note saying Sandboxie default box was loading. When finished, clicked Sandboxie icon to open browser.
The latest Opera version does not work with Sandboxie on Windows 10.
