In our testing, we found that it does indeed now limit you to one virtual space, but that's all we need at a time making the free version very useable. When the company was bought out, this brought the usual complaints about limitations in the free version. There is no trade-off of functionality for security: the Web site can use the full range of active content tools, and if it uses these tools maliciously to install software or otherwise make changes to your computer, then these changes can be easily undone.
Instead, it isolates and quarantines the outcome of whatever the Web site may do to your computer, including the installation of unsolicited software. It requires neither the disabling nor blocking of functions available to Web sites through the browser. Whether these changes are harmless or harmful, they do in fact happen to your computer system. Most of the time these changes are harmless, like recording the addresses of websites you have visited (and when), so the browser can help you complete a web address that you type in. When you browse the web, changes occur to your system.
Sandboxie lets you run programs in an isolated space which will prevent them from making permanent changes to other programs and data to your computer. At the time, and ever after, I never had this particular issue so I have always unticked that setting.Sandboxie lets you run programs in an isolated space which will prevent them from making permanent changes to other programs and data on your computer. This setting was implemented by Curt or tzuk years ago at a time when some people were reporting issues between SBIE and Google. And go to the Full file access setting Window afterward, you will see something like this (below). If you want to see an example of Full file access (OpenPipe Path), tick the setting for Google hangouts in Applications>Miscellaneous (you ll be able to do this if the SBIE version you are using still has this set of settings). Remember, File access settings open holes in the sandbox, while the one that's opened with Direct file access is a nothing hole, the one that's opened with Full file access is larger and potentially dangerous (all programs running in the sandbox, will have access to the file, this includes programs that might be downloaded into the sandbox, malware included). I think is better to stay away from this type of programs. Some programs you install might require (for compatibility) you to implement Full file access to something.
For better security, IMO, Full file access should be avoided if it can be avoided.
