I would like WebView2 to remember passwords just like Edge does when you log into Zoom. The closest I can find is a hack that I found on the Web which involves copying the information from the Edge directory, into the WebView2 directory before starting it. This works but I am wondering if Zoom considers this a security violation. There is a virus checker which is flagging this.

Thanks

@rgoodman could you share more details on what you are trying to achieve?

This practice might be beyond Zoom SDK, and it might not be fair for us to comment on it.

Yeah, it’s not really Zoom SDK. It’s more related to whether Zoom thinks this is a security risk. I was wondering if anyone else had figured out an answer to this problem.
