Allow access to camera and microphone on WINDOWS 11

[MaldroidDev]

Is your feature request related to a problem or use case?

I want to be able to use camera and microphone in the sandbox sometimes.

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe add two check boxes that allow camera or microphone access.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Curious, still on ToDo list?
My Edge sbox does not allow camera/mic access.
DefaultBox allows camera/mic access.

I mean it would be really helpful.

Windows 11 has changed how the frame server for webcams is to be accessed, to get this working a larger re work of Sandboxies inner mechanics around COM/RPC Virtualization is required.

As a preliminary workaround a Compartment Type Box can be used with opened COM access can be used

NoSecurityIsolation=y
Template=OpenCOM

to mitigate for the reduced isolation it is recommended to prevent process elevation

DropAdminRights=y

Allow access to location/spoof location as well.

It looks like both these settings are necessary for Zoom to detect a camera, and NoSecurityIsolation needs a license in order to work (for longer than 5 min at a time), unfortunately.

NoSecurityIsolation, as I understand, encompasses a variety of sandbox changes. Do we know which one(s) specifically are relevant to camera access, and would it be possible to add just that particular permission as its own separate ini flag?
