BrowserVersion Property  
 

Returns a string which identifies the WebView2 runtime version used by this instance.

Syntax

object.BrowserVersion

Remarks

The BrowserVersion property returns the version information for the installed Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime. This is the runtime that hosts the embedded browser control, and it is separate from the version of the Edge browser that may be installed on the system. This can be useful for diagnostics, logging, or when an application requires a specific minimum runtime version to support certain features. If the WebView2 Runtime is not installed or cannot be located, the function will fail and return an empty string.
