Is that exactly what it says? "open with sandboxie"
Not "Run Sandboxed"?

if u are a little scared of playing with the registry, u should probs create a restore point by right clicking on my comp and cliking on system protection.
you could also create a registry backup using CC Cleaner

Thanks, but ive done it now. Dont rely on cc for a restore point.. Make your own.
