Problem with TAdvWebBrowser and Edge

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack
1

Hello,
I just installed the latest version of your great VCL UI Pack and had to learn that it needs the Edge Runtime Installation.
The previous version could use a "normal" installed Edge Browser.
Am I right?
Why has this been changed?
The old solution was much better because my application could use Edge from the scratch - only by delivering the WebView dll.

Thanks for your support!

Bye,
Ronald

This was a viable technique until Microsoft decided to block it and force everyone on the runtime. So unfortunately the runtime is required. On Windows 11 machines the runtime is automatically installed. At some point in time it will completely replace Internet Explorer and will be a default browser on Windows machines.
