- added LibreWolf template (by Dyras) #929
- fixed performance bug introduced in 0.8.5
- added global hotkey to terminate all sandboxed processes (default: Ctrl+Pause)

- added template for Vivaldi Notes (by isaak654) #948
- replaced the Process List used by the driver with a much faster Hash Map implementation -- Note: this change provides an almost static system call speed of 1.2µs regardless of the running process count -- The old list, with 100 programs running required 4.5µs; with 200: 12µs; and with 300: 18µs per syscall -- Note: some of the slowdown was also affecting non-sandboxed applications due to how the driver handles certain callbacks

- fixed global sandboxed windows hooks not working when window rename option is disabled
- fixed issue with saving local templates
- fixed issue when using runas to start a process that was created outside of the Sandboxie supervision #688 -- since the runas facility is not accessible by default, this did not constitute a security issue -- to enable runas functionality, add "OpenIpcPath=\RPC Control\SECLOGON" to your Sandboxie.ini -- please take note that doing so may open other yet unknown issues
- fixed a driver compatibility issue with Windows 10 32 bit Insider Preview Build 21337
- fixed issues with driver signature for Windows 7

- enhanced RpcMgmtSetComTimeout handling with "UseRpcMgmtSetComTimeout=some.dll,n" -- this option allows to specify if RpcMgmtSetComTimeout should be used or not for each individual dll -- this setting takes precedence over hard-coded and per-process presets -- "UseRpcMgmtSetComTimeout=some.dll" and "UseRpcMgmtSetComTimeout=some.dll,y" are equivalent
- added "FakeAdminRights=y" option that makes processes think they have admin permissions in a given box -- this option is recommended to be used in combination with "DropAdminRights=y" to improve security -- with "FakeAdminRights=y" and "DropAdminRights=y" installers should still work
- added RPC support for SSDP API (the Simple Service Discovery Protocol), you can enable it with "OpenUPnP=y"
- SbieCrypto no longer triggers message 1313
- changed enum process API; now more than 511 processes per box can be enumerated (no limit)
- reorganized box settings a bit

- "RpcMgmtSetComTimeout=y" is now again the default behaviour, it seems to cause less issues overall
- fixed issues with webcam access when the DevCMApi filtering is in place
- fixed issue with free download manager for 'AppXDeploymentClient.dll', so RpcMgmtSetComTimeout=y will be used by default for this one #573

- "Disable Forced Programs" time is now saved and reloaded
- reduced SandMan CPU usage

- legacy language files can now be UTF8 encoded
- reworked file migration behaviour, removed hardcoded lists in favour of templates #441 -- you can now use "CopyAlways=", "DontCopy=" and "CopyEmpty=" that support the same syntax as "OpenFilePath=" -- "CopyBlockDenyWrite=program.exe,y" makes a write open call to a file that won't be copied fail instead of turning it read-only

- API_QUERY_PROCESS_INFO can be now used to get the original process token of sandboxed processes -- Note: this capability is used by TaskExplorer to allow inspecting sandbox internal tokens
- added option "KeepTokenIntegrity=y" to make the Sbie token keep its initial integrity level (debug option) -- Note: Do NOT USE Debug Options if you don't know their security implications (!)
- added process id to log messages very useful for debugging
- added finder to resource log
- added option to hide host processes "HideHostProcess=[name]" -- Note: Sbie hides by default processes from other boxes, this behaviour can now be controlled with "HideOtherBoxes=n"
- Sandboxed RpcSs and DcomLaunch can now be run as system with the option "ProtectRpcSs=y" however this breaks sandboxed explorer and other

- FIXED SECURITY ISSUE: fixed permission issues with sandboxed system processes -- Note: you can use "ExposeBoxedSystem=y" for the old behaviour (debug option)
- FIXED SECURITY ISSUE: fixed missing SCM access check for sandboxed services (thanks Diversenok) -- Note: to disable the access check use "UnrestrictedSCM=y" (debug option)
- fixed missing initialization in service server that caused sandboxed programs to crash when querying service status
- fixed many bugs that caused the SbieDrv.sys to BSOD when running with Driver Verifier enabled #57 -- 0xF6 in GetThreadTokenOwnerPid and File_Api_Rename -- missing non optional parameter for FltGetFileNameInformation in File_PreOperation -- 0xE3 in Key_StoreValue and Key_PreDataInject
- added option SeparateUserFolders=n to no longer have the user profile files stored separately in the sandbox
- added SandboxieLogon=y it makes processes run under the SID of the "Sandboxie" user instead of the Anonymous user -- Note: the global option AllowSandboxieLogon=y must be enabled, the "Sandboxie" user account must be manually created first and the driver reloaded, else process start will fail
- improved debugging around process creation errors in the driver
- fixed some log messages going lost after driver reload
- found a workable fix for the MSI installer issue, see Proc_CreateProcessInternalW_RS5

- added progress window for async operations that take time
- added DPI awareness #56
- the driver file is now obfuscated to avoid false positives

- SbieDll.dll when processing InjectDll now looks in the SbieHome folder for the DLLs if the entered path starts with a backslash -- i.e. "InjectDll=\LogAPI\i386\logapi32v.dll" or "InjectDll64=\LogAPI\amd64\logapi64v.dll"
- IniWatcher did not work in portable mode
- service path fix broke other services, now properly fixed, maybe

- SandMan.exe now is packed with Sbie files and when no Sbie is installed acts as a portable installation
- added option to clean up logs
- Sbie driver now first checks the home path for the Sbie ini before checking SystemRoot
- FIXED SECURITY ISSUE: sandboxed processes could obtain a write handle on non sandboxed processes (thanks Diversenok) -- this allowed to inject code in non sandboxed processes
