Settings?

Post by eikelein » Sat Jul 25, 2015 11:11 pm

Hello, I am new here and to Sandboxie.

Reading the on-line documentation I find things like Settings --> xxx ---> yyy and so on.

I have looked on Sandboxie Control and I don't know how many other locations but I don't find any menu entries that would conform to the instructions in the documentation. Where are they hiding?

I am sure this dumb question has been asked and answered many times; please forgive me for not finding the (probably obvious) information. Oh, and TIA.

Open the Sandboxie Control window. You can double-click the tray icon, or right-click and "Show Window".

Then either right-click on a sandbox, or click on the "Sandbox" menu item and hover the mouse cursor over the sandbox name, to see "Sandbox Settings".

Years ago, some of us suggested to Sandboxie's developer that "Sandbox Settings" be added to:
Right-click the tray icon > (hover mouse cursor over sandbox name) > add "Sandbox Settings"
He declined to do it, saying that he didn't want to add complexity to that menu.

When I was still new to Sandboxie, that's the first place that I would look for that item.

Opening settings via double LMB click on sandbox name would be intuitive

Maybe to an experienced Sandboxer like you, Dun.
I am an old timer and VERY cautious with double Left Mouse Button aka LMB.
Maybe you want to look acronyms up before you throw them around because I take some offense with gangsta talk and it's "official" meaning; see here: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=LMB
