Virto Commerce Cryptographic Exception in azure

After the struggle to successfully deploy virto commerce to Azure, and after activating the email confirmation for new users, I keep running into a Cryptographic Exception:

The data protection operation was unsuccessful. This may have been caused by not having the user profile loaded for the current thread's user context, which may be the case when the thread is impersonating.

at System.Security.Cryptography.ProtectedData.Protect(Byte[] userData, Byte[] optionalEntropy, DataProtectionScope scope)
   at VirtoCommerce.Web.Client.Providers.CookieTempDataProvider.Protect(Byte[] data) in c:\Users\Tiago\Documents\xpmarketplace\src\Extensions\Client\CommerceWebClient\Providers\CookieTempDataProvider.cs:line 91
   at VirtoCommerce.Web.Client.Providers.CookieTempDataProvider.SaveTempData(ControllerContext controllerContext, IDictionary`2 values) in c:\Users\Tiago\Documents\xpmarketplace\src\Extensions\Client\CommerceWebClient\Providers\CookieTempDataProvider.cs:line 28

   at System.Web.Mvc.MvcHandler.System.Web.IHttpAsyncHandler.EndProcessRequest(IAsyncResult result)
   at System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.OnAsyncHandlerCompletion(IAsyncResult ar)

after googling the exception text, I ran into a few guides hinting that I should set Load User Profile to True in the IIS AppPool, which I tried to do only to find out it was already true by default.

This is one of the sources https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/ad1f7367-7727-4b1a-a190-840ff4ed5709/adfs-20-sso-the-data-protection-operation-was-unsuccessful?forum=Geneva

EDIT: The exception is thrown when the system generates any token (Account activation, reset password).

Updated CookieTempDataProvider class, which uses MachineKey instead of ProtectedData to encrypt and decrypt cookies. That should resolve the issue. I'll be rebuilding our test and demo environment and checking if it works. But you can download either the complete source code or just that class and recompile. It should fix the issue you having.
