Start with the Readme.txt file at the root.
How do I start studying the source code?. We are releasing the source code under the GPL v3 license ( ) Are there any restrictions to using the source code?. No, Sandboxie can be compiled entirely from source code with very few dependencies. Does the Sandboxie Source Code come with pre-compiled code?. This contains additional requirements to set up. There is a separate Readme.txt located in the /install/ folder for building the installer. There is a dependency on the Microsoft Windows Device Driver Kit 7.1.0 (link has been provided in the Readme.txt file). (The Community Version may build the source code but be advised that there are restrictions on the use of the binaries generated by this version). The main piece of source that is needed to compile the code is Microsoft Visual Studio 2015. To start with there is a Readme.txt file in the root of the source code. Create the installer (optional but useful for initially performing tasks like installing the service and driver). Sign the generated binaries (optional for most things but required for the driver). What will happen to the Sandboxie website and available downloads?Īs and when the Sandboxie community embraces the available source code, transitioning it to an open source project, we will gradually wind down the website and expect to close the website during the fall of 2020. For this reason we will be shutting down the license server on June 1st 2020. We have removed any checks against the license server since the 5.31.1 release. The open source release has no code to check the license server. What will happen to the existing license server?. Sophos is planning to close the Sophos community Sandboxie forum on June 1st 2020. Any further improvements to Sandboxie will need to be made through the open source community. All restricted features have been made completely free in this version. 
This is the last version of Sandboxie that Sophos will make available to the community and no further updates will be made to it. The latest version of Sandboxie (Win 7, 8.1 and 10 only) is available here.
Will a Sophos pre-compiled version be made available?. We will keep you informed about the progress through this website. 
Sophos is currently engaging with members of the community who are willing to take on the Sandboxie source code and make it available through an open source project to the community. Will Sophos take ownership of the open source project?.
