Originally posted by **nopeless** October 4, 2023 It appears that WebView2 is necessary for certain tools and applications Visual Studio Community version when installing certain components require WebView2 Notable ones include PWA apps such as Snapchat and Instagram. They straight out fail due to "unknown reasons" but is easily fixable by reinstalling Edge @LeDragoX Can you replicate this behavior? Stock windows -> Remove Edge -> Install any PWA app from ms store
