CompareBrowserVersions

public STDAPI CompareBrowserVersions(PCWSTR version1, PCWSTR version2, int * result)

This method is for anyone want to compare version correctly to determine which version is newer, older or same.

Use it to determine whether to use webview2 or certain feature based upon version. Sets the value of result to -1, 0 or 1 if version1 is less than, equal or greater than version2 respectively. Returns E_INVALIDARG if it fails to parse any of the version strings or any input parameter is null. Directly use the versionInfo obtained from GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString with input, channel information is ignored.

CreateCoreWebView2Environment

public STDAPI CreateCoreWebView2Environment(ICoreWebView2CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentCompletedHandler * environmentCreatedHandler)

Creates an evergreen WebView2 Environment using the installed WebView2 Runtime version.

This is equivalent to running CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions with nullptr for browserExecutableFolder, userDataFolder, additionalBrowserArguments. For more information, navigate to CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions.

CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions

public STDAPI CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions(PCWSTR browserExecutableFolder, PCWSTR userDataFolder, ICoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions * environmentOptions, ICoreWebView2CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentCompletedHandler * environmentCreatedHandler)

DLL export to create a WebView2 environment with a custom version of WebView2 Runtime, user data folder, and with or without additional options.

When WebView2 experimental APIs are used, make sure to provide a valid environmentOptions so that WebView2 runtime knows which version of the SDK that the app is using. Otherwise, WebView2 runtime assumes that the version of the SDK being used is the latest version known to it, which might not be the version of the SDK being used. This wrong SDK version assumption could result in some experimental APIs not being available.

The WebView2 environment and all other WebView2 objects are single threaded and have dependencies on Windows components that require COM to be initialized for a single-threaded apartment. The app is expected to run CoInitializeEx before running CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions.

CoInitializeEx(nullptr, COINIT_APARTMENTTHREADED);

If CoInitializeEx did not run or previously ran with COINIT_MULTITHREADED, CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions fails with one of the following errors.

CO_E_NOTINITIALIZED -  if CoInitializeEx was not called
RPC_E_CHANGED_MODE  -  if CoInitializeEx was previously called with
                       COINIT_MULTITHREADED

Use browserExecutableFolder to specify whether WebView2 controls use a fixed or installed version of the WebView2 Runtime that exists on a user machine. To use a fixed version of the WebView2 Runtime, pass the folder path that contains the fixed version of the WebView2 Runtime to browserExecutableFolder. BrowserExecutableFolder supports both relative (to the application's executable) and absolute files paths. To create WebView2 controls that use the installed version of the WebView2 Runtime that exists on user machines, pass a null or empty string to browserExecutableFolder. In this scenario, the API tries to find a compatible version of the WebView2 Runtime that is installed on the user machine (first at the machine level, and then per user) using the selected channel preference. The path of fixed version of the WebView2 Runtime should not contain \Edge\Application\. When such a path is used, the API fails with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED).

By default, the channel search order is COREWEBVIEW2_CHANNEL_SEARCH_KIND_MOST_STABLE, which means that environment creation searches for an installation in the following order: the WebView2 Runtime, Beta, Dev, and Canary. The channel search order is reversed when the ChannelSearchKind property on ICoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions is set to COREWEBVIEW2_CHANNEL_SEARCH_KIND_LEAST_STABLE, or when the corresponding environment variable or registry override is set to 1. See below for descriptions of overrides. If ReleaseChannels on ICoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions is provided, environment creation will only consider channels in this set, following the ChannelSearchKind order.

You may specify the userDataFolder to change the default user data folder location for WebView2. The path is either an absolute file path or a relative file path that is interpreted as relative to the compiled code for the current process. For UWP apps, the default user data folder is the app data folder for the package. For non-UWP apps, the default user data ({Executable File Name}.WebView2) folder is created in the same directory next to the compiled code for the app. WebView2 creation fails if the compiled code is running in a directory in which the process does not have permission to create a new directory. The app is responsible to clean up the associated user data folder when it is done.

> [!NOTE] > As a browser process may be shared among WebViews, WebView creation fails with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_INVALID_STATE) if the specified options does not match the options of the WebViews that are currently running in the shared browser process.

environmentCreatedHandler is the handler result to the async operation that contains the WebView2Environment that was created.

The browserExecutableFolder, channelSearchKind, releaseChannels, userDataFolder and additionalBrowserArguments of the environmentOptions may be overridden by values either specified in environment variables or in the registry.

When creating a WebView2Environment the following environment variables are verified.

WEBVIEW2_BROWSER_EXECUTABLE_FOLDER
WEBVIEW2_USER_DATA_FOLDER
WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS
WEBVIEW2_CHANNEL_SEARCH_KIND
WEBVIEW2_RELEASE_CHANNELS

If you find an override environment variable, use the browserExecutableFolder and userDataFolder values as replacements for the corresponding values in CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions parameters. If additionalBrowserArguments is specified in environment variable or in the registry, it is appended to the corresponding values in CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions parameters. See ReleaseChannels on ICoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions for more details on how to construct the registry key and environment variable values.

While not strictly overrides, additional environment variables may be set.

WEBVIEW2_WAIT_FOR_SCRIPT_DEBUGGER

When found with a non-empty value, this indicates that the WebView is being launched under a script debugger. In this case, the WebView issues a Page.waitForDebugger CDP command that runs the script inside the WebView to pause on launch, until a debugger issues a corresponding Runtime.runIfWaitingForDebugger CDP command to resume the runtime.

> [!NOTE] > The following environment variable does not have a registry key equivalent: WEBVIEW2_WAIT_FOR_SCRIPT_DEBUGGER.

When found with a non-empty value, it indicates that the WebView is being launched under a script debugger that also supports host apps that use multiple WebViews. The value is used as the identifier for a named pipe that is opened and written to when a new WebView is created by the host app. The payload should match the payload of the remote-debugging-port JSON target and an external debugger may use it to attach to a specific WebView instance. The format of the pipe created by the debugger should be \\.\pipe\WebView2\Debugger\{app_name}\{pipe_name}, where the following are true.

  • {app_name} is the host app exe file name, for example, WebView2Example.exe

  • {pipe_name} is the value set for WEBVIEW2_PIPE_FOR_SCRIPT_DEBUGGER

To enable debugging of the targets identified by the JSON, you must set the WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS environment variable to send --remote-debugging-port={port_num}, where the following is true.

  • {port_num} is the port on which the CDP server binds.

> [!WARNING] > If you set both WEBVIEW2_PIPE_FOR_SCRIPT_DEBUGGER and WEBVIEW2_ADDITIONAL_BROWSER_ARGUMENTS environment variables, the WebViews hosted in your app and associated contents may exposed to 3rd party apps such as debuggers.

> [!NOTE] > The following environment variable does not have a registry key equivalent: WEBVIEW2_PIPE_FOR_SCRIPT_DEBUGGER.

If none of those environment variables exist, then the registry is examined next. The following registry values are verified.

[{Root}]\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\BrowserExecutableFolder
"{AppId}"=""

[{Root}]\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\ChannelSearchKind
"{AppId}"=""

[{Root}]\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\ReleaseChannels
"{AppId}"=""

[{Root}]\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\AdditionalBrowserArguments
"{AppId}"=""

[{Root}]\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\UserDataFolder
"{AppId}"=""

You can use a group policy under Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge WebView2 to configure browserExecutableFolder, channelSearchKind, and releaseChannels.

In the unlikely scenario where some instances of WebView are open during a browser update, the deletion of the previous WebView2 Runtime may be blocked. To avoid running out of disk space, a new WebView creation fails with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_DISK_FULL) if it detects that too many previous WebView2 Runtime versions exist.

The default maximum number of WebView2 Runtime versions allowed is 20. To override the maximum number of the previous WebView2 Runtime versions allowed, set the value of the following environment variable.

COREWEBVIEW2_MAX_INSTANCES

If the Webview depends upon an installed WebView2 Runtime version and it is uninstalled, any subsequent creation fails with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_PRODUCT_UNINSTALLED).

First verify with Root as HKLM and then HKCU. AppId is first set to the Application User Model ID of the process, then if no corresponding registry key, the AppId is set to the compiled code name of the process, or if that is not a registry key then *. A registry setting with * as the value name will apply to all WebView2 apps, and cannot be used for the userDataFolder option. If an override registry key is found, use the browserExecutableFolder and userDataFolder registry values as replacements and append additionalBrowserArguments registry values for the corresponding values in CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions parameters.

The following summarizes the possible error values that can be returned from CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions and a description of why these errors occur.

Error value Description
CO_E_NOTINITIALIZED CoInitializeEx was not called.
RPC_E_CHANGED_MODE CoInitializeEx was previously called with COINIT_MULTITHREADED.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED) \Edge\Application path used in browserExecutableFolder.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_INVALID_STATE) Specified options do not match the options of the WebViews that are currently running in the shared browser process.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_DISK_FULL) In the unlikely scenario where some instances of WebView are open during a browser update, the deletion of the previous WebView2 Runtime may be blocked. To avoid running out of disk space, a new WebView creation fails with HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_DISK_FULL) if it detects that too many previous WebView2 Runtime versions exist.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_PRODUCT_UNINSTALLED) If the Webview depends upon an installed WebView2 Runtime version and it is uninstalled.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) Could not find Edge installation.
HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_EXISTS) User data folder cannot be created because a file with the same name already exists.
E_ACCESSDENIED Unable to create user data folder, Access Denied.
E_FAIL Edge runtime unable to start.

CreateWebViewEnvironmentWithOptionsInternal

public STDAPI CreateWebViewEnvironmentWithOptionsInternal(bool checkRunningInstance, int runtimeType, PCWSTR userDataFolder, IUnknown * environmentOptions, ICoreWebView2CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentCompletedHandler * webViewEnvironmentCreatedHandler)

This is a DLL export out of EmbeddedBrowserWebView.dll which can be found in the installation folder of the WebView2 Runtime you wish to use.

Note

This function may be modified or removed in future versions. It is recommended you use CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions instead of this function.

This function creates a WebView2 environment with a specified version of WebView2 Runtime, user data folder, and with or without additional options.

This is an internal method used by CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions that acts similar to CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions, but it will only create an ICoreWebView2Environment from the WebView2 Runtime of the module on which you call CreateWebViewEnvironmentWithOptionsInternal. This is unlike CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions which handles many other cases including: falling back to other non-stable WebView2 Runtime channels when the stable WebView2 Runtime is not available, handling developer environment variables to change the runtime, handling policy registry keys to change the runtime, and others. You should use CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions rather than this method.

If checkRunningInstance is set then CreateWebViewEnvironmentWithOptionsInternal will forward the creation call to a different WebView2 Runtime if there is already a different WebView2 Runtime running for the specified user data folder. This matches CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions behavior. If not set, then this forwarding will not occur and creation will fail if there is already a different WebView2 Runtime running for the specified user data folder.

The runtimeType parameter is used to indicate if the WebView2 Runtime is fixed version with value 1, evergreen with value 0, or unknown with value -1.

See the CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions documentation for information on the userDataFolder, environmentOptions, and webViewEnvironmentCreatedHandler parameters which match the parameters from CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions.

GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString

public STDAPI GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString(PCWSTR browserExecutableFolder, LPWSTR * versionInfo)

Get the browser version info including channel name if it is not the WebView2 Runtime.

Channel names are Beta, Dev, and Canary. If an override exists for the browserExecutableFolder or the channel preference, the override is used. If an override is not specified, then the parameter value passed to GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString is used. Returns HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) if it fails to find an installed WebView2 runtime or non-stable Microsoft Edge installation.

The caller must free the returned string with CoTaskMemFree. See API Conventions.

GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionStringWithOptions

public STDAPI GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionStringWithOptions(PCWSTR browserExecutableFolder, ICoreWebView2EnvironmentOptions * environmentOptions, LPWSTR * versionInfo)

This function will tell you the browser version info of the release channel used when creating an environment with the same options.

Browser version info includes channel name if it is not the WebView2 Runtime. Channel names are Beta, Dev, and Canary. The format of the return string matches the format of BrowserVersionString on ICoreWebView2Environment.

If an override exists for browserExecutableFolder, releaseChannels, or ChannelSearchKind, the override is used. The presence of an override can result in a different channel used than the one expected based on the environment options object. browserExecutableFolder takes precedence over the other options, regardless of whether or not its channel is included in the releaseChannels. See CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions for more details on overrides. If an override is not specified, then the parameters passed to GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionStringWithOptions are used. Returns HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND) if it fails to find an installed WebView2 Runtime or non-stable Microsoft Edge installation. Use GetAvailableCoreWebView2BrowserVersionString to get the version info without the environment options.

The caller must free the returned string with CoTaskMemFree. See API Conventions.
