Is your feature request related to a problem or use case?

Sandboxie is the perfect app!!! I can use multi-instances with/and multiple accounts on the same pc! I already have 1 account on Epic Launcher and 1 account (with different owned games) on Epic sandboxied. Well, i'm trying to download a game from the second account, i'm out of space, i'll download it on a usb flash drive (bootable library). The problem is that Epic sandboxied downloads files in Sandboxie location (C:\Sandbox%username%\DefaultBox\user\all\Epic), not in the usb drive.... Can i move/install the whole Sandbboxie to the usb drive?

When you create a new sandbox with SandMan (user interface of Sandboxie Plus) you can set a custom place to store files.

For existing sandboxes, you have to copy or move the files to the new location and set FileRootPath e.g. FileRootPath=X:\new folder, where X is the drive letter and the folder is the path to where the files are located.

Here is the documentation on FileRootPath

BTW, you can use Sandboxie-Plus as portable extraction, if you run the installer and select that option, instead of actually installing it, but that does not address your problem.

Edit: And while installing, you should be able to install it to some other drive, than the default location.
