Description
What happened?
Hello!
We've had used webview2 for a year aprox, but recently it's crashing (don't know why) and new webView2 instances created after crashing appears like white window with no content. If restarts the app it works again.
I'll update the report when whe get any info about this.
I've read about ProcessFailed event for listen for the crashes, we're including this in every use of webView2 in the app for gathering info about the issue.
Crash dumps on \EBWebView\crashpad\reports folder and folder of the app are empty.
I've read about it's possible to recreate the WebView2 without restarting the whole app, but I haven't find 'instructions' about this.
What I need is recreate the WebView2 without restarting the whole app, if possible, but I don't know how to make it.
Thanks!
