**WSL** (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is not supported as it can't easily pop up a browser window. It *may* work by installing an X Window server (like [Xming][xming]) and exporting the default display to it (`export DISPLAY=:0`) before running destreamer. See [this issue for more on WSL v1 and v2][wsl].
## Can i plug in my own browser?
Yes, yes you can. This may be useful if your main browser has some authentication plugins that are required for you to logon to your Microsoft Stream tenant.
To use your own browser for the authentication part, locate the following snippet in `src/destreamer.ts`:
```
const browser: puppeteer.Browser = await puppeteer.launch({
executablePath: getPuppeteerChromiumPath(),
headless: false,
userDataDir: (argv.keepLoginCookies) ? chromeCacheFolder : undefined,
args: [
'--disable-dev-shm-usage',
'--fast-start',
'--no-sandbox'
]
});
```
Now, change `executablePath` to reflect the path to your browser and profile (i.e. to use Microsoft Edge on Windows):
```
executablePath: "'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe' --profile-directory=Default",
```
Note that for Mac/Linux the path will look a little different but no other changes are necessary.
You need to rebuild (`npm run build`) every time you change this configuration.
## How to build
