Arrow OS
It is an AOSP based project with an aim of keeping things clean!
ArrowOS is an AOSP based open source project started with the aim of keeping things simple, clean and neat, both for the Android system and users. We understand the pain of unnecessary and sometimes rarely used mods/features being shipped with custom roms nowadays which may end up causing battery drains and/or memory leaks. This is being strictly avoided on our side keeping everything to a bare minimum, delivering the stable performance all the time without destroying the AOSP interface. With users getting more used to tweaks and features, we added just the right stuff that will be actually USEFUL at the end of the day. -

Sandboxie
Sandboxie Plus & Classic
Sandboxie (and its enhanced fork Sandboxie Plus) is an open-source sandboxing tool for Windows NT-based systems. It creates isolated virtual environments in which applications can run safely without permanently modifying the system, ideal for testing untrusted software. Sandboxie Classic has the old no longer developed MFC-based UI, hence it lacks native interface support for Plus features. Although some of the missing features can be configured manually in the Sandboxie.ini configuration file or even replaced with custom scripts, the Classic edition is not recommended for users who want to explore the latest security options. A completely different token creation mechanism from Sandboxie's pre-open-source version makes sandboxes more independent in the system. -
