Disable Efficiency Mode

[BobbyShoe]

Is there anyway to disable efficiency mode in WebView2? The menu options in Windows task manager related to efficiency mode appear to be disabled for WebView2 processes.

Thanks for reaching out. I've assigned this to a dev that can best answer your question.

@BobbyShoe - Efficiency mode is managed by WV2 for some of its subprocesses depending on the visibility of your WV2 control(s). Many of the shared processes will never go into efficiency mode for a variety of reasons, but renderer processes (generally one per WV2 instance) will go into efficiency mode.

If you want to avoid efficiency mode, keep your WV2 control IsVisible property set to true.
