After installing Sandboxie 5.70.9 (same with .11) My Microsoft 365 Apps for business /enterprise crashed when ever I tried to open Outlook, Excel, Word, etc.. Reinstalling Office was also impossible.
The problem was only solved when I removed Sandboxie. After that I was able to install Office back.
Then reinstalled Sandboxie 5.70.11 and the problem come back. Can't open any Office programs. Teams works.
Removed Sandboxie again and Office started to work again.
So I'm not able to use Sandboxie right now.
How could this be fixed. Didn't have any problems before.
 
Test whether it works in previous versions. If it doesn't, the issue could be due to an incompatibility caused by a recent Microsoft update. Check the link below—it might match your case. Additionally, please provide the installed version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 on your system, as this could help diagnose the problem.

My Visual C++ is version 14.42.34438.0 both 32 and 64 bit versions.
With Sandboxie 5.70.4 (64-bit) Office is still working after I installed it. It only brakes after upgrading to .9 or .11 versions.
 
Correction. Office stopped working after reboot even with the older version.
Started to work again after removing Sandboxie and rebooted.
