  Every click on Desktop App takes me to browser url:

  I’m currently using WordPress.com Windows App version 5.0.1 release on Windows 10 (64bit).

  Every click on “Sign In”, “Start a blog” or any other link on main content window open in a new tab in my default browser. After login in browser, it stays there.

  The “Sign In” stage stays in Window App.

  The app was working fine before version 5.0.0 release. Now I’ve no option but to work in browser only. Is this some error or I’m missing something.

  I uninstalled existing app and then deleted all left over WordPress folders in my Users, Program Data and Program Files.
  After this I reinstalled the Desktop App and it worked.

  Hi there,

  Glad to hear things are working properly now. I was definitely going to suggest doing a fresh install.

  Let us know if you have any other future issues.

  Thanks,
