Bug Description

The language on the welcome screen is not very friendly and it doesn't really explain what's happening.

Avoid language like "Sandbox" which is tech speak. Try something like "testing environment" instead.

Offer and explanation of what the purpose of this dialog is.

Make it clear (regardless of window title) what application this dialog belongs to.

Don't scare users with language like "before it's too late". You imply that there is no way to uninstall your application or that it will damage the system. (really you should use standard dialog button placement but this is just FFR)

Consider the attached screen of the Xcode installer for comparison.
