What settings do I need to enable to make apps used within a sandboxied app NOT become sandboxed?

When I open something in an app using sandboxie, it adds the # # between the title, I don't want those apps to be altered at all. I want them to work as if they're not sandboxed. Is there settings to make that happen?

Put this line in the sandbox settings ini file
INI: 
BoxNameTitle=-

Do I need to add the actual app after BoxNameTitle= and do it for each app or just put it in the settings as you typed with nothing and only do it once?

But it's not about just hiding # there's already a setting that I can turn that off in general options, it's that I don't want the app to be sandboxed because it makes some apps worse such as I can't use keyboard shortcuts with VLC Media Player for example sandboxed but I can outside of the sandbox.

You have to use it as is, and just once per sandbox it is supposed to apply to. BoxNameTitle=-
 
You can use the breakout function, if you start something within a sandbox, that may start something else, which is supposed to breakout. The intended use-case was that something starts your default browser and to avoid it being started in a dozen sandboxes, one can have a separate box for the browser, apply some force rule to that box and use the breakout feature on other boxes to have it start in that box, but it can be used to start something outside the sandbox.

Sandbox Options > Program Control > [Breakout Programs]

But does that just get rid of the ##s in the name title? I want the apps to not be sandboxed is what I'm asking for, there's already a setting in options to remove the #s.

Edit: Breakout programs, that's what I needed.
 
That's just how the window title is altered.

You can use the breakout function, but everything that is done outside of Sandboxie's control is done to the system. It's like not starting something in the sandbox, Sandboxie does not have control over it.
 
I've added a bunch of apps to the breakout option and added Boxnametitle=, but when I run almost any app the app still works but I get this error, even though most of the apps are being run from desktop shortcuts and not Program Files it gives this I can't figure it out, but my Sandboxie-Plus is located in C:\Program Files\Sandboxie-Plus.

Edit: I stopped the error by removing BreakoutProcess=AutoHotKey.exe.

Everything's working except for a few things I was wondering if anything could be done like I have autohotkey scripts that do functions like put the computer to sleep, restart computer, shutdown computer, sign off computer and they will not work if running them through the sandboxie'd app.

For example the sleep script looks like this

DllCall("PowrProf\SetSuspendState", "int", 0, "int", 0, "int", 0)
