Do you have a registered version of Sandboxie?

No....

With registered version the browsers can be automatically sandboxed.

Go and register Sandboxie, it is money well invested.

I second that too. Sandboxie has the most sensible commercial license I've ever seen. Support is top notch and reliability is second to none. The user community has also created some very useful addon apps.

The existence of a DefaultBox is important for Sandboxie's functionality, IIRC, deleting it could cause some weird quirks. What you can do is create another one and then use Configure>Shell Explorer to create a shortcut for your browser.

The registered version allows you to simply assign a program as a forced process to any sandbox you chose hence making it much easier and reliable in terms of multiplexing.

Thank you all for your replies and yes I know about the forced program but what I'm talking about is when I open say the internet or another program instead of opening it in the default it will open where I say like in the internet sandbox
that I created

As mentioned by D1G1T@L. Create a new sandbox by navigating to "Sandbox>Create new sandbox" and name it as the program that you want to open in it.

After creating the new sandbox go to "Configure>Windows shell Integration" and create the shortcut. Read, "Add Shortcut Icons".

You can use the shortcuts in the free version but if you get a license, you wont need the shortcuts as your programs and files will open sandboxed automatically, in the sandbox that you want them to open.

Keep in mind that in the free version you can use one sandbox at any time but to have multiple sandboxes at the same time you need to register SBIE. Cool
