The ‘Security sandbox violation’ is Skype error 2060. It prevents the functionality of the Skype app on Windows 10 by freezing it and making it unfunctional. This guide will take care of the issue for you soon.
What is a Security Sandbox Violation?
Flash applications run inside the security sandbox, so they can not access some data without proper permissions. A Flash application is web-based; it can’t access files on the user’s local hard drive. It does not have internet access if it does not work on the web. If the application tries to go beyond these restrictions, you see an error informing you of a security sandbox violation, like Skype error 2060.
Before attempting these solutions, ensure your Skype app is up to date, and you have installed all the latest Windows 10 updates.
