Remarks

A RestrictedAppContainer that defines a child app container enables an app to protect itself from malicious data that comes from processing or rendering data from a potentially untrusted source. The child app container uses a process model where the child app container has less capabilities than the main app and its process. As an example scenario, an app might load user-submitted content, data or attachments in a known format, and that data could be accessed from within a child app container to minimize the capabilities that the data could possibly exploit.

There can be multiple child app containers that don't have access to each other. The parent process can enumerate these with FindAllAsync.

LaunchAsync, TerminateAll, Capabilities and Name are instance APIs for a RestrictedAppContainer. CreateAsync, DeleteAsync, FindAllAsync and Open are static APIs of RestrictedAppContainer.
