Overview

Sandboxie 3.66 32-bit is a software program developed by SANDBOXIE L.T.D. It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The primary executable is named start.exe. The setup package generally installs about 11 files and is usually about 3.93 MB (4,119,420 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows XP and Windows 7 (SP1). While about 45% of users of Sandboxie 32-bit come from the United States, it is also popular in Germany and Belgium.
