Description
What happened?
Webview2 has a blank screen when restored from minimized state in some user's machines. Then when we click some where else outside the window the page paints itself and shows the page correctly.
We have the following code for minimising webview:
window.WindowState = WindowState.Minimized;
We have the following code for restoring:
window.WindowState = WindowState.Normal;
