I thought I'd again tackle an old problem of the keyboard-toggle (Alt-Shift, the default selection) not having any effect, when my office suite has the focus, while under Sandboxie. It begins to work again if I shift the focus to the Desktop, without exiting the suite.
I have DebugView running, and when I hit the toggle combination, nothing appears in its window, whether the sandboxed program has focus (the System Tray Keyboard Indicator doesn't change) or, if I shift the focus away from the sandboxed program (and the keyboards begin to cycle normally).
I'm trying to see what is being intercepted, or is being rerouted, or whatever, when I press the toggle keys. Should I see some activity in the DebugView window, or should I instead be using some other utility?
The objective is to alter the sandboxie.ini file to allow the toggles to go where they should. I though after my recent upgrade, with Sandboxie's new options, I may be able to do this. But first, before I can open anything that's blocked, I would have to see exactly what should be opened.
Any ideas?

No, thanks for the try, but there's no difference. Any other ideas? Is there any tool that should show what's happening when the shortcut key combination is pressed?
The problem's statement should be clarified, in case it makes a difference: it's the keyboard indicator in the system tray that remains unchanged; the keyboards do change -- it's just that you can't see what has been selected.
Again, just by shifting focus away from the sandboxed program, normal function resumes.
Thanks -- any additional help will be appreciated.

I just returned the setting to "y," as another problem arose and I don't know if it was coincidence:
Error:
SBIE2208 Cannot Remove Registry Hive [C00001221]
I see someone else running Windows 2000 had the same problem. However, I really couldn't understand what the thread was saying about how to get rid of it -- but I did understand the hive and log file were locked, as was mine. So, I went in with Hiren's Boot Disc's NTFS tools and did a DELTREE on the entire default sandbox and everything under it, and that seemed to fix it. Now that I've returned the sandboxie.ini setting to the prior state, so far it hasn't come back.
