Looks like it rerquires you to be logged in with a MS account, then I get a CHOOSE window but still end up with a blank page.Code:Unknown Protocol One of the following (insiderhub) is not a registered protocol or is not allowed in this context. The address specifies a protocol (e.g. "wxyz://") the browser does not recognize, so the browser cannot properly connect to the site. Are you trying to access multimedia or other non-text services?

Ahha!, set it to TWINUI and it opens the Insider Hub, imagine that :)
