Launch apps within a secure environment with Sandboxie

December 3, 2009 in Software | Permalink

Most information stored on your PC will be fairly innocuous but there's no doubt your machine will also be full of personal and private information that you may want to keep secure. Unfortunately, though, It's not always easy to remember to clear your computer of private data every time you finish using your computer, either. Another option would be to run an application within a self-contained environment, then you could simply log off without having to manually clear any data.

Sandboxie 3.42 enables you to run applications in a 'sandboxed' environment, very useful for anyone using a shared computer. All data remains within a sandboxed environment and not on your drive, which may also help to protect your system from malicious infection.
