Reset the Sandbox
Programs running inside the sandbox store the changes to the files accessed by them inside the sandbox so that the changes do not affect the real computer system. Items stored in the sandbox could, depending on your usage patterns, contain malware downloaded from websites or private data in your browsing history. Periodically resetting the sandbox will clear all this data and help protect your privacy and security. If data has accumulated over a long period of time, then resetting the sandbox will also help the sandbox environment operate more smoothly.
The Reset Sandbox option under the Sandbox Tasks allows you to delete all the items stored in the sandbox.

Click on the 'Sandbox Tasks' bar from the Tasks interface and then click 'Reset Sandbox'
