Detecting if Sandboxie is registered

[Anon85035]

Hi, I'm writing a script to automate some Sandboxie operations and I was wondering if it's possible to detect if the installation is registered. That way I could for example automatically determine if it can utilize multiple sandboxes at once.

Yes, you can run

"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\License.exe" silent print exprdate

Note that License.exe is not a console program so you have to pipe or redirect the output to see it. For example in a cmd promt,

"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\License.exe" silent print exprdate | more

Thanks! Exactly what I was looking for.

Actually, both the registered and unregistered Sandboxie seem to output the same thing :/ At least if I unregister it. I haven't tried with a fresh installation

The expiration date of your Product Key is (None).

Sorry. I guess that would only work for time-limited product keys. How about timeleft instead of exprdate ?

Yep, that works!
