WebView2 - Block Windows Network Diagnostics window from launching

Anonymous

In my WPF application with WebView2 control, it is required that any interaction (like clicking links) inside the page does not launch any external windows (i.e. any windows that is not part of the application).

In case a page the WebView2 is loading is not accessible or a timeout occurs, ERR_TIMED_OUT page is displayed with a link to run Windows Network Diagnostics as shown below.

Is there a way to prevent WebView2 from launching the Windows Network Diagnostics window?
