Hi Troy, sorry about the late response. Is the issue occurring on version 0.8.0.0?

V0.7.5.3 when I had the issue. I will try the most current now.

Still opening in Edge on the new version. Perhaps I’m not using the application correctly. How can I tell if it’s running. I ran it, configured it, Saved it. Is it running now? Is there something else I need to do?

Hi Troy, if MSEdgeRedirect wasn't running it would open the Windows App instead. I'll look into this more when I get home.
