!!! info "Release relevance"
    This Testcase applies the following versions of {{ rc.prod }}: {% for version in rc.ver %}{{ version }}{% if not loop.last %}, {% endif %}{% endfor %}

!!! info "Associated release criterion"
    This test case is associated with the [Release_Criteria#default-application-functionality-desktop-only](9_release_criteria.md#default-application-functionality-desktop-only) release criterion. If you are doing release validation testing, a failure of this test case may be a breach of that release criterion.

    The associated release criteria, [Release_Criteria#default-application-functionality-desktop-only](9_release_criteria.md#default-application-functionality-desktop-only), for this test case is overly general and **must** be modified to specific enough to be testable.
