Jan 2018 Windows Update Security rollup for Windows 7 blocks Sandboxie [CLOSED-DUPE]

After the following recent update to Windows 7 Pro,

2018-01 Security Monthly Quality Rollup for Windows 7 for x64-based Systems (KB4056894)

now, I get the following "Program Compatibility Assistant" warning at startup (and also when I try to run the installer from the latest "Windows 10-compatible" version of Sandboxie available from the https://www.sandboxie.com website):

This program is blocked due to compatibility issues
Program: Sandboxie
Publisher: tzuk

Nothing on the https://www.sandboxie.com website (or, for that matter, this forum that I could find) mentions anything about this. Is this being addressed? When will it be fixed?

And also, BTW, who is the alleged publisher, tzuk?

Same problem here. Windows update installed some patches on shutdown last night. This morning I was greeted by the same message. I'm running Win 7 Professional, 64bit
