@MapleLeaf - In your case you need to do the following to the IE project:

1.  Set all desired processes to run natively, not letting them default to running within the virtual bubble.  This is done by use of the "ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault" and "ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions" build option settings.

2.  Additionally, so external processes can see these files from the virtual IE app, you'll need to customize the folder isolation settings for the following folders.

%Temp% - create this if it doesn't exist.  Set the isolation to MERGED in the ##ATTRIBUTES.INI file.  Delete all other contents.

%Cache% (or IE Cache folder) - set to MERGED isolation and delete all contents except ##ATTRIBUTES.INI file.

Probably need to do the same for %Profile% if exists or just delete it.

Depending upon where else IE stores files for web apps, you may need to do the above for other folders.  You may also need to set VirtualizeExternalOutOfProcessCOM=0 as a build option.

As for the licensing issue, once you get the processes launching externally, you won't have the licensing issue with Office.

Then build, wipe your sandbox, and rest.
