    I recently ran into a strange issue namely CyberPunk 2077 not being able to load mods when ran sandboxed, after some investigation it showed that the issue was with one of the file migration settings in the default template that being
    DontCopy=*.ts
    this setting is there to prevent miss behaving media players from causing large files to be migrated into the sandbox.
    Obviously nowadays *.ts has a whole new meaning and should no longer be dropped.

    The main issue here was that sandboxie expressed a non default behavior without notice, hence I'll add a bunch more sbie messages to one of the next builds, as well as a new options page where all these settings can be revived, it will look something like this:

    now one open question is if I should enable the new messages by default, as depending on the user case some users may run into them quite often, what do you think?
