microsoft weather is 4.53.51253.0 and it does not work , while microsoft maps works

microsoft wather does say it need need Microsoft Edge WebView2 ,207 mega bytes

Hi, FWIW I've just updated my weather app to the same version- it's fine.

Background to Microsoft Edge WebView:
Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime rolling out to Windows 10

Hi
but I wanted to update it , it was updated automactly
it worked yesterday ,any way to update microsoft weather with an older version?
but have you Microsoft Edge WebView2 installed or updated?
thanks

Thanks for your reply.


No, you have no control over which version of Store app you run. There are other ways to get weather reports of course.

As for EdgeView2- if you have read the news item I linked for you it says:



i.e. its presence is not visible in the normal way.

I found these related folders:


That also shows the version.

Hi Dalchina
yes I have read about WebView2 it's pretty old news 317 days ago , but should I update microsoft edge (is it included WebView2 ) ?
or should I download and install WebView2 manually?
weird windows 10 did not update WebView2
I use at 90% firefox and 10% chrome
I have never used microsft edge or internet explorer
thanks

See if it's already installed (and the version):

I can't comment on the relationship between Edge and the runtime being installed- clearly it's used by numerous apps, and seems to be expected to be present.

I did find a thread where someone (albeit with a somewhat hacked O/S) was being prompted to install it, and how they chose to stop it being offered- but they were wrongly relating it to a version of MS Office.

Hi
no i haven't it
see you have installed 8 May 2023 ,1 day before the updates
but should I download the 64bit or the 32bit version ,because i see some apps are 32bit even my windows pro ?
but how can I know what/which apps do run in background ? Autorun o Revo do show windows apps but not correctly
but weird i'm the only user to comlain few apps don't work anymore from yesterday
thanks

What is your Edge version?

You have 22H2, so shouldn't be too far out of date.

Hi
I guess v98 or v99 , i wanted to disable or uninstall
thanks dalchina
