how to stop sbiedrv driver?

i tried "net stop sbiedrv" from admin cmd, it says service cannot be stopped. But since Sandboxie can update without reboot, there must be some way to stop and start the driver on the fly.
 
thanks, occasionally i see "cannot stop sbiedrv service at this time, this is the 1st of three retries" error during update. In which case does this happen? i will try to avoid the case if it happens in certain circumstance because i cannot reboot my pc to update sandboxie most of the time.

Check if there are any open file handles using an advanced task manager (such as TaskExplorer, SystemInformer or Process Explorer). If there are, close these applications and try again, or if you want to take the risk, you can manually terminate these handles. (The system may become unstable)
