You can create a setting that will always allow the program that creates "results.csv" to read from and write to the copy of the file that's outside of the sandbox, and therefore bypass any sandboxing for that file.

Assuming that the program that uses that file is installed outside of the sandbox:
Sandbox Settings > Resource Access > File Access > Direct Access

"Add Program" button: (enter the .exe name of the program that writes the "results.csv" file)

Then either use:
"Add" button: Navigate to and select the "results.csv" file that's outside of the sandbox.
OK your way out.
or,
"Edit/Add" button: *\results.csv
OK your way out.

Using the "Add" button only allows the .exe program to write to the "results.csv" file at the location that you selected when you navigated to that file.
Using the "Edit/Add" button setting would allow the .exe program to write "results.csv" to any location that you choose.
