But that's not all. Another one promised to be delivered today is the fixed version release model of WebView2. Most WebView2 elements will be updated regularly, just like Chromium. In fact, Chromium and Edge are updated every six weeks, and the SDK plans to have the same rhythm.

You may also want to have a specific version for your application, for whatever reason. With a fixed version distribution model, you can do this without automatic updates.
