Allow system browser / Edge authentication instead of embedded login

[Kevin-RDO]

We’re running into an issue with the current authentication experience using the embedded browser control.
In our environment (Intune + Conditional Access + MFA), the login window inside the app is being treated as an unsupported or outdated browser. We consistently see the “Update your browser / unsupported browser” message and are unable to complete authentication.
This seems to be caused by the embedded web view being used for MSAL authentication rather than the system browser.
What would help
It would be really helpful to have an option to choose how authentication is handled:

Option to use system browser (Edge/default browser) instead of embedded
Or enforce WithUseEmbeddedWebView($false) for MSAL
Ideally configurable in settings (e.g., checkbox like “Use system browser for authentication”)

Why this matters
Many enterprise environments now enforce:

Conditional Access policies
Modern authentication requirements
Browser compliance checks

These often block or degrade embedded browser sign-in flows, even when the device is compliant.
Using the system browser (Edge) or WAM aligns with how Microsoft tools handle authentication today and avoids these issues.
Current workaround attempts
We tried modifying the MSAL code to force system browser usage, but due to the UI relying on embedded auth, it breaks or fails to launch properly. So this would need to be handled internally by the tool.

Hello,

Try enable WAM in Settings and then use PowerShell 7.

That should fix this.

Cheers!

Hello,

I'm just following up on this. Did you get it to work with WAM and PowerShell 7?

I updated the Development branch and added support for System Browser login. You can download and try that as well.

You need to enable this in Settings and restart it.

Cheers!
