 This is an advanced topic, which explains that even after running a program under Sandboxie, your computer may still record _which_ programs were executed or what they did. It is important to emphasize that this is not a security breach as it will never allow sandboxed programs to infect or otherwise abuse your computer. However, this may be interesting reading for those concerned with the privacy aspects of using Sandboxie.

 **Overview**
 
 The guiding principle of Sandboxie is to isolate and contain any actions taken by programs that Sandboxie supervises, for the purpose of keeping your computer and operating system in a clean and healthy state.

 **MUI Cache**
 
 Windows Explorer records in the registry the names of programs that are launched directly through it. This includes launching programs through the Start menu, the desktop, the quick launch area, or any folder views. It is true even if the right-click "Run Sandboxed" action is used to launch the program under Sandboxie.

 **Windows Hibernate File**
 
 Similar to the Windows Page File, the hibernate file stores a copy of the memory and state of the system before the computer is turned off as part of the hibernate process. Thus the hibernate file may contain bits of memory that were used by a sandboxed program.

+Restore points are snapshots of the state of the operating system at some points in time. The System Restore component in Windows XP and later versions records and restores these snapshots.
 
 Snapshots are recorded in the (typically inaccessible) folder called _System Volume Information_ and may include [many types of files](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sr/monitored-file-extensions) found throughout the system, including within the folders of the sandbox.
 
 Thus it is possible that System Restore will create backup copies in its folders for files or programs that exist only in the sandbox.
 
-The System Restore component ignores files and folders in temporary folders, so [moving the sandbox](SandboxMenu.md) to C:\TEMP\SANDBOX instead of the default C:\SANDBOX should cause System Restore to ignore the sandbox when creating a snapshot.

 **System, Audit and Other Event Logs**
 
 Windows sometimes records bits of information about running programs in its various [event logs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_Viewer). Typically, very little if any information is logged about a program. However, if security auditing has been enabled for some aspects of the system, Windows will have no trouble logging the details of any actions taken by a program running under Sandboxie.
 
-Windows has an Event Viewer program which can be used to view and delete the event logs. [More information here](https://www.howtogeek.com/123646/htg-explains-what-the-windows-event-viewer-is-and-how-you-can-use-it).

 **Windows System Tray Icons**
 
 When a programs which is running under Sandboxie asks to place an icon in the [system tray area](https://www.computerhope.com/issues/chsys.htm), Sandboxie lets the program place the icon in the real system tray, which is typically located at the bottom right corner of the display.
 
 This has the advantage that interaction with the tray icon of the sandboxed program is as easy as interacting with any other tray icon. However, it also means that Windows will record this icon and its description in the history of all tray icons it has ever displayed.
