Share one renderer process for multiple webview2 instances which load the same html file

Question

I have a small WinForms app that opens many forms and each form contains an instance of webview2 control.
Inside that control, I load an HTML file that exists on the local hard disk. My question is that for every new form, I create I can see a new renderer process created on the task manager. This new process consumes a lot of memory. Is it possible to share one renderer process between all these instances as they all load the same HTML page?

According to your description, you can try to put multiple profiles under a single user data folder to save system resources. For more information, please read Support multiple profiles under a single user data folder.
