Running multiple boxes with Claude Dekstop

[mm.progresja]

I have Sandboxie-Plus installed on a Windows 11 machine. I'm trying to run multiple instances of Claude Desktop, but I'm getting errors on one computer, despite it working flawlessly on another computer. I have `claude_1` box, in Sandboxie-Plus. I have .bat file with this line:

"%~dp0venv\Scripts\python.exe" -c "from claude import init_claude; init_claude(port=%1)"


I'm trying with this command:

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> & 'C:\Program Files\Sandboxie-Plus\Start.exe' /box:claude_1 C:\Users\admin\Documents\GitHub\AgentHub\start_claude.bat 9223


But I keep getting this error:

Unable to create process using '"C:\Users\admin\Documents\GitHub\AgentHub\venv\Scripts\python.exe" -c "from claude import init_claude; init_claude(port=9223)"': System nie może uzyskać dostępu do pliku.

Error says in Polish: System can't access the file

Running the `bat` manually works fine, running the Python snippet also works in itself. Am I on the right track? Maybe there is a simpler way to run multiple Claude Desktops on the same machine?

I don't know why you get an error. It might be that Sandboxie has incompatibilities with Python. Here is an example issue.

What version of Sanboxie-Plus do you use? (E.g. 1.15.11)

I might be unable to help you, but someone with more technical knowledge can step in.

Since I am also unfamiliar with Claude Desktop, how are you supposed to start it, when you start it regularly?

Hello,

What is Claude Desktop,
do I need to download it or just run the pyhton command,
Can you provide steps to reproduce the issue on a clean VM?

Cheers
