Taskbar button not showing Sandboxie icon [SOLVED]

Post by Scoox » Tue May 30, 2017 8:39 am

On my Windows 10 Professional 64-bit system the Sandboxie Control window gets a generic white icon on the Windows task bar, instead of the usual yellow sandbox icon. I've only upgraded to W10 recently but I recall quite clearly that this didn't happen when I was using W7. It's not really a big problem but I thought it'd be worth reporting it. Thank you!

Hello Scoox,

Please provide more information:

Have you tried rebooting your machine, and/or reinstalling Sandboxie?

Regards,
Barb.-

I've just re-installed Sandboxie as you suggested and that seems to have fixed the issue. Thank you! I honestly have no idea what could have caused this. It makes me think that rebooting the computer may have fixed the problem.
My configuration is as follows (although it probably doesn't matter now!):

Windows 10 Professional Edition, Version 1703 (OS build 15063.332) 64-bit
Sandboxie v5.18 64-bit
Not running any antivirus or firewall software (I've disabled Windows Defender & Windows Firewall)

If the problem happens again I'll keep an eye out for clues :D
