Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A sandboxed MS Access process becomes unresponsive if the sandbox doesn't have BoxNameTitle=- ("Don't Alter the window title" on Sandboxie Plus). This is a known issue with certain Office windows that interfere with Sandboxie indicator (#) and therefore it was recommended in the old Sandboxie forums to disable it for Office.

Describe the solution you'd like
Sandboxie should detect a program and apply on the fly the best BoxNameTitle value under certain conditions specified on the source code, like the presence of specific window titles that could cause issues.

Describe a possible alternative
Apply BoxNameTitle=- to a special list of executables set on Templates.ini.
