Hi, I don't have discord, not want to get it. Sorry. Installing the installer from your GitHub repo, as opposed via Microsoft Store, fixed my problem.

Regards, Daniel

Greetings, i confirm this problem on the store version, the browser don't redirect to the app after login.

The version downloaded from github works.

I have identified a possible cause and fixed it here: b62ffc5831ca16fe5921ec844137d8002d67cd7c

The new version has been submitted for Microsoft Store review, and I will update here if there is any progress.

Sorry, the issue has not been resolved yet. It seems to be a problem with the Microsoft Store. We will support manual copy-paste of the login token in the next version to temporarily bypass this issue. 47e07a4cc3d77ec68b90b3722a1a5c78e304bc55
