Issue: Setting "Forced Folder" over-enthusiastically to "C:\" prevents windows from booting.

Current:

  • Sandboxie classic (5.49.0) warns a user (somewhat ambiguously and not to the point) when they set Force Folder to, for example, "C:\".
  • Sandboxie Plus (0.7.2) does not warn the user.

Suggestions:

  • Classic and Plus to warn user properly
  • Prevent any settings in the UI and in the INI that essentially break Windows.

If "Force Program" is added without the use of "Browse for File", no warning will be displayed.

This has been recently fixed in the latest CI builds.
