Hi @JacqPee,

Thank you for the issue details,  
I see that you are using the Firefox web browser, and in the Firefox browser, default application settings are changed and due to that correct application was not opened on the web login.  
To fix that please follow the below steps,

1. Close the Simlink application.
2. Open Firefox web browser and go to browser settings.
3. in Settings → General → Applications, there is `navigraph-traffic-desktop` content-type listed.
4. Set the `navigraph-traffic-desktop` value as `Use Navigraph Simlink` as default.

5. Now, start the Simlink application and try to login again.
6. Done 🙂

Please let us know if you still have the issue.
