Well if we are talking sandboxing, Windows has it and this malware specifically has sandbox escape functionality for that purpose.

  What kind of sandbox does Windows have? All I could find was about a pro/enterprise feature but even that has to be explicitly started and I doubt minecraft users used that. Not having admin rights is almost uselessly crude as a “sandbox”.

    There is the one called "windows sandbox" but it's not persistent making it useless. More recently, I've been following https://github.com/microsoft/win32-app-isolation https://github.com/microsoft/win32-app-isolation which seems incredibly interesting! If they can pull it off, we will have mobile-os like security on windows, finally, after all these years. It has been my #1 feature request for windows for so long... I almost can't believe it's actually happening.
