processhacker VS Sandboxie

You can also use tools like Simplewall, Wireshark, Sandboxie /Cuckoo Sandbox, Process Explorer/Process Hacker to help you with this analyze and also to protect you system and data.

Interesting project, nice use of the egui crate. I usually write this kind of thing in C, might be a good time to RIIR. I personally prefer the windows crate because it is official and generated directly from the API metadata. FYI Process Hacker can do DLL injection and a lot more, in case you're looking for a powerful tool

I downloaded Process Hacker: https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/

Other application that was useful for me in similar situation was Process Hacker: https://processhacker.sourceforge.io/

I would like to use the WinStationShadow function in my small project. I would like to write a console RDP shadow switch utility. I found the Process Hacker use this function. See: https://github.com/processhacker/processhacker/blob/master/ProcessHacker/sessshad.c (at line 215)

Could be some pre-installed bloatware. Process Hacker, which is a beefed-up Task Manager, helped me isolate needless services and processes that were clogging up my CPU. It made a noticeable difference once I pruned out the detritus, plus it has a feature to always launch noita.exe with High CPU priority.

I used to use sandboxie so I could emulate multiple browser sessions without worrying about cached creds or the different portals screwing up my context. It works decently.

Use Sandboxie on Windows. It's open source these days, and isolates processes from making changes on your system. It's perfect to install and run potentially unsafe programs. Sandboxie exists since 2003, and yet we still have people in business worlds running viruses from mail attachments.

Sandboxie

You can allow applications inside a Sandboxie to communicate with each other through sockets even when network access by Sandboxie is blocked1. You can enable Sandboxie network access and use Windows firewall outside Sandboxie to block all applications inside the Sandboxie from accessing the network1. It is also possible to specify ports that cannot be accessed by boxed applications2. However, it is not possible to specify IP’s or IP ranges that cannot be accessed by boxed applications2.

In addition to just taking all privileges way from the process, like Chrome does, there's also Sandboxie [1] and the official Windows Sandbox [2]

VirtualBox dropped 3D acceleration for old OS like XP a while back, you can see it it running "dxdiag" on your windows XP and running the tests, it will do DirectDraw only since the game is a 32 bit windows game it should run on modern windows like 10 and 11, I saw that the main problem is the DRM, so you will need a "cracked/pached" exe, I can't help with that, but do your own search, if you want to be "safe" you can try running it using something like SandBoxie-plus https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie/releases

With those pre-reqs, is there anything Windows Sandbox can do that Sandboxie can't?

Could you pls. test if the vulnerability can be mitigated by using Sandboxie-Classic (that is the free version)?

I also want to recommand this piece of small software but it's very neat, Sandboxie: https://github.com/sandboxie-plus/Sandboxie
