Hi I would like to run application with sanboxie+ in compatibility mode. I have enabled option compatibility to all users but with no effect. I have found some command for windows 8 compatibility but not for windows xp. Thanks.
 
What system do you run Sandboxie Plus on? It might be different for different versions of the operating system.

I guess that Windows does not have compatibility mode for all versions.
 
windows 10 64 bit. I mean Windows can run program in compatibility mode but with sandboxie I can't do this.
 
I can't test if this works as intended, but you should be able to use different compatibility modes for the same executable.

  1. Open a sandboxed explorer window of the sandbox you want to start the app with different compatibility settings.
  2. Navigate to the file you intend to run with compatibly settings, right click on it and select to open its properties.
  3. Go to the compatibly tab and make the changes and apply them.
  4. Launch the program sandboxed.

Now, the properties outside the sandbox should remain the same. When you have more than one sandbox, each sandbox can have a different compatibility mode for a program. I could test if I can make those changes, but I can't test if compatibility mode is indeed applied.

If it does not work, it might be that Sandboxie is not, or not yet compatible with such functionality, even though that isn't new.
