Description

One of our customer runs into the problem that the WebView can't get created. Three ProcessFailed-Event are triggered:

  • Kind: RenderProcessExited, Reason: LaunchFailed, Exitcode: 21 (this event is triggered twice)
  • Kind: BrowserProcess, Reason: Unexpected, Exitcode: -2147483645

WV2-Runtime: 114.0.1823.43
OS: Win_10.0.22621

Re-installation of WV2 didn't help, Edge itself seems to be working fine.

Is there any documentation about what the exit-codes of the renderer process mean? Maybe that could already narrow down the problem.
