I'm not sure why this is the case. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to edit things that are in the sandbox (you create it in the first place, after all), whilst making sure things in the sandbox can't access anything outside it. AFAICT, it's basically just running as a different user. User user gets edit access, Epic user only gets access to its own folder.
- Wowfunhappy 8y agoThe problem is that third-party-Dark-Souls-modding-tool.exe needs access to Dark-Souls.exe’s sandbox. Note, I use Dark Souls as an example here (as opposed to, say, Skyrim) because Dark Souls mods were very much not developer-sanctioned at the outset. If From Software had needed to explicitly allow mods, you can bet they never would have happened.
- ztjio 8y agoSo then you give it access. Nobody is saying that you, the user, should not have control over these sandboxes.
- lifthrasiir 8y agoI think most current examples of sandboxing also implies app signing and whatever restricts users' own control, hence the confusion. Users are sometimes allowed to lift the restriction but it's mostly an all-or-nothing bet.
