As a lightweight desktop environment, it is tailored to run applications securely. In other words, you can run untrusted software in the sandbox without worrying about it having a lasting impact on your device.

For the average user, you can make it run in the same window as a normal program. Even if it turns out that these programs are malware, the main system permanently deletes all related software and temporary files after closing the Windows Sandbox.

It is reported that the sandbox mode introduced in Windows 10 1903 can simulate a complete operating system and at the same time be safely isolated from the rest of the main system. Every time you restart the sandbox, you get a brand new test site.
