Not yet implemented in a form similar to Sandboxie. Auto-delete isolated environment is to be explored - and if it can be implemented - in a future build. How soon I do not know, but it was my # 1 request.
In Settings you will see setting to "Remove ReHIPSUser". This will completely delete ReHIPSUser in C:\Users\User when you manually delete the isolated environment from Settings > Bound.
Manual and automatic deletion is must-have feature. This is one of the most things I love from Sandboxie... Oh and the ability to put/redirect to a RAM disk (volatile drive at shutdown/reboot) other than system drive.
@Mr Cryptor : ReHIPS isn't Sandboxie, and work differently than Sandboxie, so you should set your mind that way :D
don't use Sandboxie's habits with ReHIPS, behave like sandboxie never existed. :D
@Mr.X : that was one of the first request we submitted.

The install locations of C:\ReHIPS and C:\Users\User\ReHIPSUser is hard-coded.
Submit a feature request to define drive path for both so can set to RAM Drive.
Ok guys, thanks.

You would have to make a persistent RAM Drive -- otherwise C:\ReHIPS and C:\Users\User\ReHIPSUser would be deleted every time you rebooted system !
It will cause errors. When you execute a program with an "Allow in Isolated Environment" rule, then ReHIPS will look for RAM Disk Drive:\ReHIPSUser - but it won't be there because the non-persistent RAM drive dumped it upon reboot... unless you commit changes to the hard drive prior to reboot.

I don't see that. I saw in ReHIPS control Center>Settings tabs for:
Interface
Protection
Programs
Trusted vendors
Trusted Command Lines
Log
Which one would "Remove ReHIPSUser" be in? And is there a need to flush it (delete it) out every once in a while?
Are you doing it too?

"Remove ReHIPSUser" will act like 'Delete Contents in SBIE'?
Thanks in advance.

I think ReHIPS should be able to re-create the Isolated Environments, i.e., any ReHIPSUser(s) which have been volatilized upon reboot. This way no trace of data remains on any drive.

It's called Remove Isolated Environment. It's in Protection tab. You can see description of isolated environment internals here https://forum.re-crypt.com/index.php?topic=2433.msg4613#msg4613 So no, there is no need to flush it once in a while.

We've got in our TODO list feature to auto-purge isolated environment on close (when isolated program is closed, remove and recreate that isolated environment). But if ReHIPS user profile was deleted from outside, it's not up to ReHIPS, Windows manages users profile folders and I'm afraid it'll start complaining and there isn't much we can do about it.

please explain how to find Settings > Bound, in v 2.2.0.

In Settings-Programs you can see a tree with real Windows users (including System), isolated environments (or Un-Bound group that contains programs not bound to any isolated environment) and programs. So by Bound I guess he means any isolated environment.

I think he is asking "How do I find the setting to delete ReHIPSUser."
It is auto-deleted AFTER you delete the Isolated Environment in Settings > Programs > Bound; you delete the Isolated Environment in the list. Afterwards, ReHIPS will auto-delete the corresponding ReHIPSUser in C:\Users\User\AppData.
You can disable this auto-delete setting in Settings.
Geez... I cannot remember what the name was changed to... I think "Remove Isolated Environment."

LOL...I was the one who requested the wording change...
okay, so I see a tree like in the screen shot .
Let's say I want to delete my chrome isolated environment.
I could just select chrome and then click on delete, but then I will have to reinstall rules, if I want chrome to run isolated.
Is there a better way to do it?
No, there is no better way to do it for now. Plans are for an auto delete option but it's not implemented yet.
another thing that could be implemented is an option to install specific rules.
Let's say I delete the rule for chrome. Instead of disappearing, it would be greyed out.
I would right-click it and then reinstall just that rule.
This could be really useful, because:
1 reinstalling rules can take a long time
2 it often reinstalls more than you wanted, so you have to go back and start deleting again.

This is also in the todo list. ;)
About 1 Fixer is trying to identify why it's happening to fix.
About 2 for now the rules you don't want to come back don't just delete them. Change isolated to allow. When a rule is present in the list it doesn't reinstall it.

Right. But it will still repopulate the trusted vendors list.

Trusted vendors is another case. That will require a fix because there is no easy way around it.

We already have this issue in our TODO list, still under investigation.
You're right, Install Rules installs rules+trusted command lines and vendors. Trusted command lines and vendors are also installed with Reset to Defaults button in respective Settings tab. But we've got in our TODO list changes to move Install Rules button to Settings Programs tab and to make it install rules only.
