Brief Description:

Operating System (OS and version): Windows 10 x64 OpenBazaar version (shown on About OpenBazaar page in menu): client 2.1.0

Reproducible (Always / Almost Always / Sometimes / Rarely / Couldn't Reproduce): Always

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a hyperlink to a store URL on OB
  2. Access URL and open OpenBazaar
  3. See issue

Observed Behavior: If you already have an electron app running it will open a second client and give the error: "Unable to obtain your server config". If you do not have an electron app already running it will open OB on your store specifically.

Expected Behavior: The client should open and automatically navigate to the store linked. If the client is already open it should directly go to the store.

I can reproduce this on Windows. I haven't tried on Mac yet.

If the app is closed, it works as expected.

If the app is open, a new instance of it is opened.

I would further add, that in either case, the Electron app does not navigate to the store described in the hyperlink. It seems to always open to my store homepage. I have to copy and paste the address into the OB app to go to the location of the link.
