WebView2 Not Reinitializing Correctly After App Language Change in UWP

I'm working on a UWP application that uses WebView2 to render and print HTML content. My RegisterPrintPage method initializes the WebView2, loads HTML, and then prints it to a PDF.

Everything works fine until the app's language is changed. After switching the language, WebView2 fails to initialize properly, and WebViewControl.CoreWebView2 becomes null.

However, if I change the language back to the original setting, WebView2 works correctly again.

Here’s my implementation:

Additionally, I noticed that WebView2 instances are not closing properly. When checking Task Manager, I see multiple msedgewebview2.exe processes running even after calling CleanupWebView(). This makes me suspect that WebView2 is not fully releasing its resources.

Interestingly, if I manually kill the msedgewebview2.exe process using the command line (taskkill /F /IM msedgewebview2.exe), WebView2 starts working correctly again.
