Game sound help

[RarMee]

A game did not have any sound working when being played inside the default sandbox. I found out that each of these fixes the sound.

NoAddProcessToJob=y
OpenWndStation=y
OpenWinClass=*

Which choice is better for security/isolation.

NoAddProcessToJob=y

I recommended that setting, if it fixes the problem. The started process won't be added to the Windows Job Objects.

Can you mention the name of the game? Maybe, it can be a general workaround for audio issues, but even if not, maybe it will be a template for that game.

OpenWinClass=*

This allows sandboxed processes to interact with all unsandboxed windows, which is not good for security and isolation.

OpenWndStation=y

If this is set sandboxed applications are allowed to access "Windows Stations", which are "named objects", and include session information.

I can't explain that on a technical level or in more detail, but someone working on the internals of Sandboxie or is familiar with the system internals, could explain it better.

Thanks for the help! Original versions of Mass Effect 2 and 3. The exes did not show up in the windows volume mixer. I have no idea if that issue is only on my side because drivers or software conflict. When I ran them outside of sandbox it runs normal. Original version of Mass Effect 1 ran perfect without adjustment inside the sandbox.
