Chrome doesn't work with Sandboxie and OA

[screeno 0]

Same issue as gdiloren and tempnexus for me.

Windows 7 Home Premium, Chrome 21.0.1180.75, OA Free 5.5.0.1616 Updated today, and Sandboxie 3.72 (64-bit). I have to exclude the Chrome\Application folder in OA in order to get Chrome to work with OA and with Sandboxie.

I don't need the exclusion if I open Chrome outside of Sandboxie.

I dislike having to exclude my browser in OA, but I dislike running with Sandboxie even more.

So far, I have no been able to reproduce this in my own testing on 32-bit Windows 7, but now that I think about it I may be testing on the wrong platform.

I'm going to retest this on Windows 7 x64, and see if I can reproduce it there. If I can, then we will know that it is exclusive to a 64-bit environment (perhaps because Sandboxie works differently on 64-bit editions of Windows).

Excellent. I'll stay tuned. Thank you.

I have uninstalled OA until something changes that allows me to not have to exclude the Chrome\Application folder in OA.

I appreciate your testing efforts, Arthur, and look forward to hearing what you learned.

I dislike having to exclude my browser in OA, but I dislike running with Sandboxie even more.

In my original post I wrote that I "dislike running with Sandboxie even more".

That was a typo that I cannot edit.

It should have said, "I dislike running without Sandboxie even more".

OK, my testing on Friday reproduced the issue, and I sent logs and memory dumps to our developers. I have since received word that they have identified the problem, and that it should be fixed in the next release of Online Armor.

That's good news.

Sounds as though it took testing in 64-bit to find the problem.

Glad it'll get fixed.
