Maybe someone could explain how this is less secure ... or if there's no difference.
There's no difference using the context menu (right-click method). In fact, it is my preferred approach opening up zip files.

Re: Install infected software in sandboxie

Can I make a sandboxed folder on my pc, and install/unzip the .exe program there and run it save? Or is this not the purpose of sandboxie?

But, if you don't want your AV to do that, then you should be able to configure your AV to ignore scanning your sandbox(es). You can read more abou...
