I have developed a universal app which displays sharepoint files in cortana canvas in the form of tiles. So, when one clicks on the tile, it launches the app in foreground which then opens a link in browser and then the app closes.
I want to hide the app from being shown to the user. It is desirable that when one clicks the tile it directly opens the link in the browser.

What you mean by "displays sharepoint files in cortana canvas in the form of tiles"? Is this "tile" your application's tile? – Grace Feng Mar 01 '16 at 08:17

And what is the cortana canvas? You mean in the "Feedback" interface display a sharepoint file? And this file should be opened by browser? Anyway, I just tried it, I can't hide the app. – Grace Feng Mar 02 '16 at 02:00

Can a Cortana background Task open the Browser? Or is it restricted? I just found the answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35289835/winrt-windows-10-launch-website-without-opening-metro-app The App has to be launched in the foreground. – DevEnitly Mar 05 '16 at 15:53

Currently on clicking the tile I have opened the app to open the file in the browser and then closed the app. – Mudit Juneja Mar 05 '16 at 17:21
