This is a question about UII and the sample CCA AgentDesktop solution from MicrosoftDynamicsCRM2013UII.exe (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40321).
I noticed odd behavior when running AgentDesktop as 64-bit in a couple scenarios. We have a web hosted application configured as dynamic and to use a new browser process.
Expected behavior: (see screenshot "expected" below)
The dynamic web hosted app should open within AgentDesktop and it should load the web page. (This is the behavior if AgentDesktop is built as a 32-bit.)
Actual behavior 1: (see screenshot "actual")
When not run as admin, the dynamic web hosted app opens outside of AgentDesktop and the web page loads; also a blank hosted app opens within AgentDesktop
Actual behavior 2:
When run as admin, the dynamic web hosted app opens within AgentDesktop as a blank page.
Is this a bug? If so, is it something the team would be willing to fix?
