Default Sandboxie and Asus Utility (CapsHook.exe)

Hi

I am hoping for some advice....

CapsHook.exe is a small utility from Asus that runs in the background and notifies you via the Notification Area if you enable/disable the Caps Lock. It is only visible in the Notification Area whilst Caps Lock is enabled.

Whilst using Sandboxed Chrome the utility does not work, however, if I click out of the Chrome window it works.

Does anyone know how I could let this utility work with Sandboxed Chrome?

I have a Default Sandbox, using Drop My Rights only.

I would appreciate any advice,

Cheers,

Adam

Have you tried to add CapsHook.exe to programs allowed to start in "Restrictions/Start/Run access? You could also check in "Applications/Desktop Utilities if CapsHook is listed.

Thanks for your reply.

All programmes are allowed to Start/Run, and CapsHook does not appear to be listed.

I wonder if there is anything else to try?

Perhaps you could try to post your problem at the Sandboxie forum while somebody here might come up with the solution.
