WebView2 Runtime will be installed starting on March 8, 2021. "Microsoft 365 Apps is starting to provide new or improved features that rely on Microsoft Edge WebView2. In February, Microsoft announced that future versions of Microsoft 365 would begin to utilize WebView2 control to embed web content directly in the native applications. The WebView2 control is built upon Microsoft's new Chromium-based Edge browser. Microsoft's WebView2 allows developers to embed and render web content directly in their native applications, including JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.


Microsoft is automatically installing the WebView2 runtime on Windows 10 machines to support upcoming versions of the Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Office applications.
