Help test experimental Windows sandbox

[ae-openai]

Hi folks, we have more Windows improvements coming your way, and we'd love help testing.

If you use the CLI on native windows, you can enable a highly experimental filesystem and network sandbox. Once it's stable, Codex agent mode will run more securely and safely, with far fewer approvals.

The current biggest caveat is that does not prevent file writes, deletions, or creations in any directory where the Everyone SID already has write permissions (for example, world-writable folders).

Various commands that you'd expect to succeed may fail, and we'd love your help identifying those and any other rough edges.

Run in PowerShell with

codex `
--enable enable_experimental_windows_sandbox `
--sandbox workspace-write `
--ask-for-approval on-request

Docs (minimal so far) here: https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/main/docs/sandbox.md#platform-sandboxing-details

Happy testing and thank you!

I'm getting this conda.exe - application error each time codex tries to call the command I'm guessing.
"The application was unable to start correctly (0x0000142) Click OK to close the application."
Running on Windows 10 64bit.

hey @dusancv22 are you still seeing this? If so, can you type /feedback in the CLI and send it over to us so we can diagnose? Thanks!

Yeah, now, that error is gone in 0.55 version, but now I just realized that it doesn't want to edit the files on its own.
It just gives me the code for me to manually modify it.
I used /feedback to report it:
ID 019a5e34-2bbe-78c3-b280-3808d95398fc

EDIT:
The tool calling is working, but it's still going through PowerShell, not sure if that should be different or not.
