Is a "default exclusion" an instuction that is hard coded into Sandboxie that replaces the need to include such instruction within the Ini file??

Yes, thats right.

A bit offtopic, but are there (recommendable) alternatives for KeyScrambler? Even it looks good, just want to know.

For me Anti Keylogger Shield 2.3 failed all tests with Anti-KeyLogger Tester (AKLT) v3.0

tzuk, and all KeyScrambler (2.2.1) users:

As far as I can see with Sandboxie 3.30

Code:

\Device\NamedPipe\KSTIPipe*

isn't needed anymore, now

Code:

\Device\NamedPipe\KSTIPipe

works too.

Can you confirm this?

Not here. The Personal version of KS may work without that OpenPipePath line, since it installs as a browser add-on. However, the KS Pro program is not a browser add-on. It installs as any other program, unsandboxed, and will not communicate with my sandboxed programs without that line.
KS Pro v2.2.1
SB 3.30

I did not say the (whole) line isn't needed anymore Wink

Just the * in it.

Yes, you are correct.
The OpenPipePath line is still needed with the KS Pro version, but you don't need the * at the end of the exclusion.

\Device\NamedPipe\KSTIPipe*
or
\Device\NamedPipe\KSTIPipe
work the same - as you say.

I had forgotten that Sandboxie assumes a wild card character at the end of a line in the configuration file, if none exists elsewhere in the line.
So, the OpenPipePath line is still needed for the KS versions that are installed unsandboxed, but the wild card character at the end of the line is already assumed by Sandboxie - and so it is not needed. Thanks for pointing this out, and jogging my (failing) memory. Laughing

To re-iterate:
The default exclusion for KSTIPipe in Sandboxie 3.30 does not include a wildcard star at the end.
I am going to play it safe and this default exclusion will be revised in the next version to include the star.

The default exclusion in version 3.31 is now KSTIPipe* (including the star).

I've removed that exclusion for KeyScrambler from my configuration file and can confirm that it is no longer needed for KeyScrambler Pro V2.
Thanks.
