[Bug]: WebView2 disabled #442

Open HarvieKrumpet opened 3 weeks ago

HarvieKrumpet commented 3 weeks ago

Description

I got a little carried away with the scripts. Amazingly visual studio installer will not install the tool reporting that it cannot install WebView2. I tried to manually install it separately. But I assume your script enforced not to allow that. I do not know which particular script removed it. I suspect it was the Internet explorer one, but the revert didn't work. Too many scripts to actually know which was the culprit.

If you can let me know which script removes webview2 and/or separate that from being bundled out with IE. that would be great.

WebView2 is now used by quite a few shared tools nowadays even though it is packaged with IE.

How can the bug be recreated?

Hard to tell now, I clicked on quite a few scripts

Operating system

windows 11. Try to install VS community from scratch. will fail during the install process.

Can you share the script you used? Otherwise it cannot be reproduced.

Blindly guessing, I'm suspicious of "Disable Edge update executable", try reverting that?
