Sandboxie-Plus v1.8.0 released

Added 2023-02-27 19:42:24 +0000 UTC

This build introduced a couple of major changes to sansdboxies inner mechanics, all preset access directives have been moved to template entries. Sandboxie now fully isolates the NT namespace reducing the potential attack surface. Last but not least a couple of compatibility fixes should improve the use of chrome and chromium based applications.
