If you are talking about settings in games, all you need to do is restore the settings file from the sandbox. For Renpy games, this will be the persistent file, which is located next to the saves. I don't know for sure about other game engines, but the concept is the same.
No, sorry. I'm talking about managing sound volume in Windows for games that doesn't allow you to change volume (like Starmaker Story for example).

Unfortunately, Windows volume settings are not saved for applications running in the sandbox. At least, I haven't found a way to save them. Alas.

I use the global volume level for such games to lower the volume before launching them. Or I don't play such games at all — if the developer is too lazy to make such a setting, their game is most likely shitty.

Fair point, thank you anyways!

so true. reminds me of countless games from the Flash heydays, always an annoying soundtrack at max blast, and no setting for it.
Sandboxie doesn't really come with it's own mixer, right, i suppose one could maybe create such with a VM; that's different.

i'd recommend a keyboard with volume wheel, works for me because it usually directly uses the system's global main (aka speaker, output or summary on some systems) slider.
