Describe the Bug
Since Oct 23, 2026 at about 11:25 UTC (6:25 AM CT), every browser action and Screenshot on my bot’s computer fails with:
The box could not confirm that no saved credential is being filled into its browser, so this tool did not run.
Everything else still works: Shell, files, connectors and routines. Only the browser and desktop are blocked.
Steps to Reproduce
- Ask the bot to open any page (e.g. example.com) or take a screenshot.
- The tool is refused with the error above, every time, for about 4 days now.
Diagnostics (from the bot’s computer)
- /tmp/sand-supervisor/status.json: hostRunning: false, hostVersion: 78042fa, gatewayDescriptorPresent: false
- /tmp/sand-host.log: 0 bytes, last modified Oct 23 11:25 UTC
- box-doctor (Oct 25): 11 checks, 0 failed. Chrome running; egress, clock, dbus and disk fine.
What I’ve Tried
- Update Bot’s Computer on Oct 23: no effect. The Update row is no longer visible in my settings.
- Emailed [email protected] Oct 25 at about 13:30 UTC: no reply yet.
- Sent in-app feedback Oct 26.
This looks like the same issue as topics 175929 and 176355, where the fix was moving to a fresh computer.
Impact
All social posting, YouTube uploads and analytics across my 12 bots have been blocked for about 4 days.
I’m backing up my files to my own drive today and will confirm here once it’s done. Please move me to a fresh computer, keeping my bots, chats and routines. Thank you!
Steps to Reproduce
Just try to use any of my bots that require the computer.
Operating System
