Hi @William-abing, could you please ensure that you’ve added the necessary entries to the WHITELISTED_ORIGINS environment variables for Windows app support, as mentioned in the documentation?

I am using Cloud version, not self-hosted, I also tried to add WHITELISTED_ORIGINS env var, but did not work.
Older version 25.1.1.2 works well, and now I am using the old version again.
