regression in 2023.3.24.0 - Edge WebView2 Browser sessions profile directory

btw, changing the variable to $USERNAME$ doesn't change anything, the whole functionality seems to be broken right now.

We are investigating.

It looks like the # in the company name is the issue. WebView2 creates a profile folder with # but then doesn't respect the profile name when it comes to cookies.

I tested with this structure:

If my folder names started with @ all worked as expected but with # they shared the same cache (but only for the cookies as they had their own disk cache)



The solution, we now replace any # in the profile name with __ (2 underscores) and all is working normally for me.



You can try to rename the company name and see if it resolves it for you.

Best regards,

ok, I just renamed the folder everything is dandy now :) - but your internal solutions will roll out in the next version, just in case I use a # in another context?

Thank you for the update. Good to here that it works on your side, it confirms that my repro steps are valid and that the fix will work.

Yes, the next release of v2023.3 will have the fix.

Best regards,

ok, in 2023.3.25.0 the same problem, but this time all # are gone from foldernames. changing the profile name doesn't help. this inconsistency starts to be a bit of a problem. :-|

btw, it looks like as if this sessions by default connects to the acount connected to windows. this is how it looks like when logging out and logging back ing

@perler

Please check the following setting: File > Options > Types > Sessions > Website > Microsoft Edge > "Enable Single Sign-On with Windows account" it should be set to No?

ok, that's a new one, it was set to yes for whatever reason. looks good now.
