I install sandboxie on different computers, with different systems .. sometimes the program becomes buged - the window for checking is not active "run as a UAC administrator"

on the same computer with the same system can be normal, can be buged, if it has already become buged, then update, roll back, still the window is not active.
With this option, only take the rights in the settings of the sandbox itself ..
 
can I return the program to the normal state?

Hello nolek,

Do you have UAC disabled on your system? (If yes, re-enable and reboot, then check again).

Otherwise, is there a chance that Sandboxie files are set to run as Administrator in compatibility mode?
To check, navigate to your Sanboxie installation folder (C:\ProgramFiles\Sandboxie...) and see if the SbieCtrl.exe and Start.exe have any compatibility settings added (right click---> Properties --> Compatibility---> Change settings for all users) .

Also, if you are running Win 7 x64, you will need to download the latest beta to avoid issues with the latest kernel security updates:
