Trying to launch a desktop web recording in IE 11 and I'm getting an "Unable to launch recorder" message. Test Studio launches the website just fine but doesn't start the recording. I'm currently VPNed into a network with a proxy server connection set for it in IE 11. Test Studio is installed on Windows 10 running on a VM. I've posted the log file below:
