Description

If you set source with NavigateToString then all download requests from source will be ignored after first one (no ask for download and DownloadStarting not firing) - see video below.
But, if you set source through Source property - all will be fine.

Start by examining the attached WebView2Download.zip reproduction and run it on the reported WinForms setup. Compare downloads after setting content with NavigateToString versus Source, checking whether the download prompt and DownloadStarting event occur repeatedly. Done means subsequent download requests behave consistently in both cases.
