Research direction

Start by reproducing the Windows login failure and inspect the bundled desktop file at resources/app/desktop/dist/index.bundle.js, where the stack trace reports the error. Trace the createDataURL call during login and verify that a successful Windows login no longer produces the reported TypeError.
