Comment (by lior):

 I'm the one who posted the same sandboxing problem on the Tor blog. I
 first noticed a problem running the Tor Browser with Sandboxie when you
 released Tor Browser v. 8.0.9. At that time, I would get the same error
 messages reported in this ticket, but if I repeatedly exited and
 relaunched Tor, it would eventually run in the sandbox. It wasn't until I
 updated to v 8.5 that the Tor Browser would not run in the sandbox at all.

 I downloaded Firefox ESR Portable v 60.7.0 (from portableapps.com) because
 I did not have time to install Firefox to test it with Sandboxie. This
 Firefox portable version does run in the sandbox without giving any error
 messages.

 If it matters, I'm running Windows 10 Home Edition, Version 1803, OS Build
 17134.765. Sandboxie is version 5.60.
