I have also done cargo update (as suggested in Discord chat) but it didn't fixed the issue.

i could imagine that this is because of the old webview2 version, maybe it's incompatible with the newer bindings. Buuut i don't know why it's outdated in the first place, because windows 11 should use the evergreen version (the auto-updated one) 🤔

[lucasfernog]

Your webview2 is super old, mine is 101.0.1210.53.

[lucasfernog]

Seems like the minimum version we support is 101.0.1210.39: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wravery/webview2-rs/main/crates/bindings/src/Microsoft/Web/WebView2/Win32/mod.rs

[kfiven]

sorry to ask this, but how is this supposed to get updated? Updated windows itself to the latest, updated all apps from the store including edge, also tried to download webview2 manually but it says a webview2 is already installed.

[FabianLars]

That's the thing, it's really supposed to update itself and iirc I didn't saw this problem before.

Did you try executing the WebView2 installer (evergreen) explicitly with elevated permissions? It has 2 install "modes" that's why it may be worth a shot.

[kfiven]

Ok, giving it elevated permission installed version 101.0.1210.53 and now the dev server works fine. Feel free to close.
