Sandbox Settings
The Sandbox Settings window in Sandboxie Control displays and changes the configuration and options associated with a single sandbox. The Sandbox Settings window can be accessed in two ways:
- From the menu bar: Access the Sandbox Menu, select one of the sandboxes listed, then select the Sandbox Settings command:
- From the context menu: In the main window area, right-click (or press Shift+F10) on the name of a sandbox, then select the Sandbox Settings command. (See the discussion about Context Menus in Programs View or Files And Folders View for more information.)
Note that unless new sandboxes are added, Sandboxie lists only one sandbox: DefaultBox.
In the Sandbox Settings window, the individual settings are organized into settings pages, and some pages are organized into groups, as shown below.
The left part of the window contains the pages and groups. When a settings page is selected (clicked) in the left part of the window, the right part of the window shows the related settings.
When a change has been made in a particular page, the change must be applied to Sandboxie before moving to any other settings page. This can be done manually using the Apply button, or automatically by marking the checkbox at the bottom of the window ("Apply changes when switching to another page").
The sections below describe each settings page.
Configuration changes do not apply to programs that are already running sandboxed at the time the configuration is changed. To keep things simple, you are advised to make configuration changes when no programs are running in the sandbox.
