Sandboxie worth paying for ?

Absolutely, 100%, it is! Sandboxie is the one security component on my systems that will never change. SBIE + IMDisk (Ram drive software) > *!
In that case, don't buy it... yet. Try it out to see if it fits your security setup.
Sandboxie can be a little intimidating, but it's worth it.
I would still buy it now. No sense in trying something without all the features. I, and other here, are more than happy to help. Feel free to ask.
No, its getting over-complicated and expensive . The average Joe would have no idea how to use it now.
No disrespect to the current developer, he's doing a real good job, but he keeps adding options that are making it harder and harder to use. Its used to be simple, not anymore.

You may not need something if you don't use it. So, try it first before subscribing. I haven't used Sandboxie and have never felt the need for it.
If you don't need the "extra paid" features you could consider using the free version. I only need the free features for my usage type and just donated some money as a thanks for all the work the dev has.
I was a regular happy user of sbie ages ago, but left it after R Tzur left. But now trying sbie+, used for a day or 2 and "how-to(s)" started coming back to me. I bought a personal license. Exchanged a couple emails with DavidX -- he replies quickly. I'm seeing ways to use sbie+ and also Cyberlock's new Windows Sandbox feature. Different tech powers each, so interesting...
Haha...You seem to have the exact security setup as me! Smart man!
The following - "Cyberlock's new Windows Sandbox feature", i could not find any info about, could you explain or point me to some info.I was a regular happy user of sbie ages ago, but left it after R Tzur left.

Refer to post 949: New Update - VoodooShield CyberLock 7.0
See @danb posts in Voodooshield 7.0 thread n/k/a Cyberlock thread in December IIRC starting with version 7.65 and currently 7.68. It has 3 features or ways to use Windows Sandbox mostly by opening Edge in Windows Sandbox. (I'm always afraid if I go to the post to get its URL that this pending message will vanish -- it's happened to me before...)
I agree that it is becoming over-complicated (if it ain't broke, don't fix it) but despite that, I vote yes, worth paying for.

my conundrum about sandboxie-plus: I bought a one-year personal certificate Jan_2024 so it is coming up for "renewal." I generally like "donating" for productive software. Last year a personal license was 40 Euros. So ok, sbie+ works good for me, I'll renew, but now a personal license is 60 Euros and adding a 20% VAT (12 Euros) but I'm feeling like I do not get 72 Euros of value from it. & if I'm in US why am I paying VAT, and is VAT really 20% -- instead of valued user, now I'm unhappy non-renewing non-user. Gee, VMware Workstation is now free.
I went ahead and bought the perpetual license. I only get upgrades for a year, but the license is mine to keep. For me, that's a better deal because it seems SBIE is running out of useful things to implement.
Yes I think it`s worth paying for to help with development etc.
The free version does all that I need but I`ve just taken out a years subscription as a thanks for the superb browser protection it`s given me over the years.
Anyone new to it might want to check out the threads here and at wilders to get a handle on how people use it.

I often pay for development, that's why I bought a sbie+ Personal Certificate last January, but not sure I want to fund him yearly (he probably has more money than me at this point)(& I have other stuff I want to buy)Yes I think it`s worth paying for to help with development etc.
