add_DownloadStarting
Add an event handler for the DownloadStarting event.
public HRESULT add_DownloadStarting(ICoreWebView2DownloadStartingEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)
This event is raised when a download has begun, blocking the default download dialog, but not blocking the progress of the download.
The host can choose to cancel a download, change the result file path, and hide the default download dialog. If the host chooses to cancel the download, the download is not saved, no dialog is shown, and the state is changed to COREWEBVIEW2_DOWNLOAD_STATE_INTERRUPTED with interrupt reason COREWEBVIEW2_DOWNLOAD_INTERRUPT_REASON_USER_CANCELED. Otherwise, the download is saved to the default path after the event completes, and default download dialog is shown if the host did not choose to hide it. The host can change the visibility of the download dialog using the Handled property. If the event is not handled, downloads complete normally with the default dialog shown.
// Register a handler for the `DownloadStarting` event.
// This example hides the default download dialog and shows a dialog box instead.
// The dialog box displays the default result file path and allows the user to specify a different path.
// Selecting `OK` will save the download to the chosen path.
// Selecting `CANCEL` will cancel the download.

add_FrameCreated
Raised when a new iframe is created.
public HRESULT add_FrameCreated(ICoreWebView2FrameCreatedEventHandler * eventHandler, EventRegistrationToken * token)

Remove an event handler previously added with add_DownloadStarting.
public HRESULT remove_DownloadStarting(EventRegistrationToken token)
remove_FrameCreated
Remove an event handler previously added with add_FrameCreated.
public HRESULT remove_FrameCreated(EventRegistrationToken token)
