Auto Recover
AutoRecover is a sandbox setting in Sandboxie Ini. With AutoRecover=y, SbieDll initializes process-side Immediate Recovery detection using the effective RecoverFolder and AutoRecoverIgnore entries. It reports eligible files to the recovery UI; it does not itself move files to the host.
When no effective value is present, the detector's runtime fallback is disabled. Classic new-box defaults explicitly enable it, and the current SandMan new-box wizard offers it enabled by default. Quick Recovery remains available when AutoRecover=n because its SandMan scan is separate. Restart affected sandboxed processes after changing automatic detection settings.
