Sandbox - Option to Disable Forced Programs

#1

I am a new user of CIS 6.3 so apologies if this has been requested before.

I would like to see an option, similar to the Disable Forced Programs feature in Sandboxie, whereby programs that are set to automatically run with full virtualization in the sandbox can be temporarily suspended to allow program updates without having to delete the application path to allow it to be run outside the sandbox, update the program, then manually add the application path again, which is clumsy.

An easy way to achieve this would be to add a new restriction level of ‘Unlimited’ to allow a sandboxed application full access to the system. The application entry in ‘Sandbox Advanced Settings’ could then be edited to check the ‘Set Restriction Level’ checkbox and set the restriction level to ‘Unlimited’ before performing a program update. After completion of the update, the entry could be edited again to uncheck the checkbox to resume full virtualization.

I think this is a good idea but it’s in the wrong section. :wink: The right section is here: Comodo Forum (Don’t worry, mod will probably move it soon)

Also, instead of setting it to unlimited I think it would be a good idea to have a toggle instead, like in the attached picture, your thoughts?

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I agree a toggle would be better. I only suggested a new restriction level because I thought it might be less work for the developers.

Apologies if I’ve posted in the wrong section. Hopefully a mod will move it to where it belongs so it can get better exposure.

I have moved this to the wishlist section. It would probably also be a good idea if you added a poll.

Thanks.
