Quick question, how do I reset my sandbox and completely ‘flush’ it like SandboxIE?
The ‘delete contents’ button doesn’t seem to actually ‘delete contents’ because after doing so if I interrogate the sandbox folder I’ve created it hasn’t diminished in size.
I normally have to manually delete the contents.
PS: as a footnote, I get a BSOD in Windows 8 Pro when I try to navigate around the Sandbox folder too!
Prior to resetting the sandbox, did you change the location of the sandbox storage?
I had to yes in order to remove old sandbox that wouldn’t delete.
The above is what I reported regarding this problem. I am not testing the new beta so I am not certain if the beta addresses this or not.
That’s really interesting and you may have shed light on my problem.
I set my sandbox storage to my second hard drive, away from the default ‘same drive as the modified file’, since then whenever it gets too full I have to create another sandbox directory, incremental, i.e. AvastSB2, reboot then delete the preceding folder, AvastSB1.
I do get the occasional message that the sandbox is deleting when the button is pressed, but always that something is using it and a reboot is required.
This is when nothing is running at all in the sandbox???
UPDATE:
Set option back to default and it works again!
Why give the option of moving the sandbox storage location if when you do, it breaks? :
