I have a silverlight 5 app that runs fine in browser but as soon as I run it out of browser it does a number of things on start-up (like login screen etc) but then it gets grayed out (as if the background rectangle of a child window has not closed) and it remains that way. I cannot imagine that this is a SL issue but cannot find anything in our app that could cause this, has anyone else experienced this?

This actually seems to be related to checking for an update on the server using App.Current.CheckAndDownloadUpdateAsync(), any ideas? – Adriaan Davel Jan 11 '13 at 05:23

Have you correctly configured the app as a desktop application?

I have, and I have also tried different combinations of settings. If I remove the code that looks for an update then it works fine, as soon as it checks the server for an answer it locks up. – Adriaan Davel Jan 22 '13 at 04:49
