Not work when path contains hash charactor

[gh615]

Hi, sorry for poor English.

WebView2 doesn't seem to work when path to exe file contains hash charactor(#). Like 'C:\C#\Projects'.

Is this bug? Or expected behavior? Thank you.

using Microsoft.Web.WebView2 1.0.961.33

Edit: Sorry. I forgot to write some important information. I'm using WebView2 for WPF application on .net framework on Windows. Thank you.

Hey @gh615 - thanks for using WebView2! In an url the # is the reserved fragment character. To use it in your path you need to percent-encode it: %23. Let me know if that doesn't work for you!

Thank you for your reply, and sorry for late response.

Excuse me. I didn't quite understand what you meant. I'm sorry if I'm misunderstanding.

I didn't mention about URL loaded by WebView2. I meant location that the application exe file reside.

For example. When the app that is using WebView2 is located in 'C:\CS\Projects\wpfapp.exe', webview2(inside the app) seems to work properly (It can load page perfectly.), but when the app is moved to 'C:\C#\Projects\wpfapp.exe'(probably because of # charactor), webview2(inside the app) doesn't seem to work.(It shows nothing)

I don't know whether bug or specification.

Thank you.

Does it make sense? Sorry for poor English. If it doesn't make sense, please don't hesitate to ask.

Ah, sorry I misunderstood - thanks for clarifying!

I'll open a bug for this. Thanks!
