Fields

LeastStable = 1

Search for a release channel from least to most stable: Canary -> Dev -> Beta -> WebView2 Runtime.

MostStable = 0

Search for a release channel from most to least stable: WebView2 Runtime -> Beta -> Dev -> Canary. This is the default behavior.

Remarks

The default behavior is to search for and use the most stable channel found on the device. The order from most to least stable is: WebView2 Runtime -> Beta -> Dev -> Canary. Switch the order to prefer the least stable channel in order to perform pre-release testing. See CoreWebView2ReleaseChannels for descriptions of channels.
