I used Gemini to find stuff out. But WinPatrol was actually what I vaguely remember, I think...I probably remember it doing more than it actually did, my recollection was that you would install it, run it, and it could intercept, I think, applications you wanted to run. Or you'd run it through WinPatrol?
That's why I said Sandboxie is closer to in spirit to what I remembered.
It's been closer to 20 years since I used it, I remember a lot of popups, I think, and you could break programs in all sorts of creative ways :-)))
