Remarks
OR operation(s) can be applied to multiple CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels to create a mask. The default value is a mask of all the channels. By default, environment creation searches for channels from most to least stable, using the first channel found on the device. When ReleaseChannels is provided, environment creation will only search for the channels specified in the set. Set ChannelSearchKind to CoreWebView2ChannelSearchKind.LeastStable to reverse the search order so that environment creation searches for the least stable build first. See CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels for descriptions of each channel. Environment creation fails if it is unable to find any channel from the ReleaseChannels installed on the device. Use GetAvailableBrowserVersionString(String, CoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions) to verify which channel is used. If both a BrowserExecutableFolder and ReleaseChannels are provided, the BrowserExecutableFolder takes precedence. The ReleaseChannels can be overridden by the corresponding registry override ReleaseChannels or the environment variable WEBVIEW2_RELEASE_CHANNELS. Set the value to a comma-separated string of integers, which map to the following release channel values: Stable (0), Beta (1), Dev (2), and Canary (3). For example, the values "0,2" and "2,0" indicate that environment creation should only search for Dev channel and the WebView2 Runtime, using the order indicated by ChannelSearchKind. Environment creation attempts to interpret each integer and treats any invalid entry as Stable channel. | ReleaseChannels | Channel Search Kind: Most Stable (default) | Channel Search Kind: Least Stable | | --- | --- | --- | |CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Beta \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Stable| WebView2 Runtime -> Beta | Beta -> WebView2 Runtime| |CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Canary \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Dev \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Beta \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Stable | WebView2 Runtime -> Beta -> Dev -> Canary | Canary -> Dev -> Beta -> WebView2 Runtime | |CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Canary| Canary | Canary | |CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Beta \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Canary \| CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels.Stable | WebView2 Runtime -> Beta -> Canary | Canary -> Beta -> WebView2 Runtime |
