Testing across multiple .net frameworks without containers or virtual machines.
It's a lot faster to initiate an app inside wine on Linux then start up a VM and launch it on Windows. I think it's even faster than containers on Windows but don't have any data to back it up.
Lastly, for sandboxing applications (not a great security layer of course, but safer than running natively) so they don't pollute the registry or access sensitive files.
Wondering if it's possible to play dx12 games on older versions of Windows that don't officially support it.
