Editorial description
Sandbar is a application sandbox for Windows 10 and 11. Runs a downloaded installer in a restricted desktop with a disposable profile folder. This catalog page covers the current 3.1.1 installer we measured at 15.0 MB, including the SHA-256 published with the release.
In daily use it lets you launch an executable with reduced rights and throw away the profile after. We noted network can be blocked for the sandboxed process. Setup does not bundle extra toolbars. Kernel drivers and some installers will still need a real session.
