Overview

Sandboxie 3.72 64-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.

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 13 files and is usually about 4.92 MB (5,160,212 bytes). Relative to the overall usage of users who have this installed on their PCs, most are running Windows 7 (SP1) and Windows 7.
