Description
What happened?
People with French Windows 10 & Windows 11 when they print from the Webview2, the language displayed in the print dialog is always in English instead of French (the Windows OS Language).
I read everywhere that Webview2 does not respect local settings of the OS.
The problem appear when you either print with right click print or the javascript window.print()
Importance
