Delete sandbox contents and remove its directory. If the current sandbox is the entire file system on a Cytoscape workstation, trying to delete it is an error. Otherwise, deleting the current sandbox results in the default sandbox becoming the new current sandbox. When running standalone on the same workstation as Cytoscape, the default sandbox is the entire file system on the Cytoscape workstation. When running in a Notebook or remote server, the default sandbox is the 'default_sandbox' created automatically under the under the filetransfer directory in the CytoscapeConfiguration directory. If that sandbox is deleted, it will be re-created so that subsequent file operations can complete successfully.
