UPDATE!
We have just released Preview 3 for 4.9! Please view the Known Issues List on page 1 of this thread for the updated list of known issues.
Known Issue UE-19780 - A browser window will pop up in addition to the UE4Editor application when running the Editor while signed into the Launcher. This will not occur when launching the Editor while signed out. Expecting a fix for this issue on Thurs (8/13) via a Launcher update.
Thank you for your continued help in testing the 4.9 build before its official release. As a reminder, the Preview builds are for testing only, and should not be used for the active development of your project.
Cheers!
