Hi while running this in a process that does not have desktop access on windows server 2019, it works fine if I rdp to the server and run the console application but not if it is run when logged off.

It works but you need to have permissions that allows access to profile settings. See releated blog post for details.

ok I have read the blog post again and used your Console Sample project and the only think I changed was I removed the ShellUtils.OpenUrl(outputFile); to prevent the browser from opening at the end.

it works fine with a desktop environment, but when the Console Sample exe it is executed from a service it hangs. it is possible that it does not work on a hardened server where the service user is a domain user.

I also tried the AspNet IIS site example project it returned a 500 error, and that was with just the IIS user it does not even write to the ./logs or the C:\Temp\WebViewEnvironment folder.
