Hello,
Here is a short description of what I'm trying to achieve. Is all this possible with Sandboxie?
Goals:
- extend storage (128gb ssd laptop), I want to be able to install apps on external storage thinking they are on C:/
- but be able to remove the external storage when apps are not needed
- complete isolation between my external storage and the system disc
Apps are 32 or 64 bits
OS is Win10 64bits
I did a short try with the free version but:
- impossible/difficult to unmount the USB stick even after stopping sandboxie
- could not launch firefox and libreoffice installer
Are there functionnalities not available in the free version?
Thanks for your advices, experiences...

Re: Test and install apps on a USB C stick
Hello Acertia,
Installed applications are stored in the Sandbox folder (typically "C:\Sandbox"). This folder can be changed via here:
https://www.sandboxie.com/SandboxMenu#container
I also recommend that you take a look at our FAQ to understand what do we offer:
https://www.sandboxie.com/FrequentlyAskedQuestions
Here are some existing threads regarding using Sandboxie with external drives:
viewtopic.php?p=127487#p127487
viewtopic.php?p=117273#p117273
viewtopic.php?p=98958#p98958
The differences between paid and free versions are a few features such as Forced Programs/Folders, Office C2R support and running multiple Sandboxes at once. More info here:
