+Sandbox state on Linux follows the XDG Base Directory specification and is
+spread across three directories:
+
+```console
+$ rm -rf ~/.local/state/sandboxes/
+$ rm -rf ~/.cache/sandboxes/
+$ rm -rf ~/.config/sandboxes/
+```

+`XDG_CONFIG_HOME` environment variables, replace `~/.local/state`,
+`~/.cache`, and `~/.config` with the corresponding values.
