[Problem/Bug]: ShowSaveAsUI don't work with custom scheme

[jls28]

What happened?

I am using a custom scheme to display a simple html page via WebResourceRequested/IStream/CreateWebResourceResponse/put_Response.

The first problem : the "Save as" command is not available from the context menu (same thing happen with the webview2APIsample -> scenario navigate to custom scheme via webResourceRequested).

Second problem : ShowSaveAsUI create a file BUT immediatly delete it (same thing happen with the webview2APIsample -> navigate to custom scheme via webResourceRequested).

@jls28 Please share a minimal example to understand the problem.

@ParadoxZero The problem is that I use a custom scheme to display an internal generated html page and I would like save the page to a file but it is impossible because ShowSaveAsUI don't work and the "Save as" command is not available from the context menu.

It is similar to the Microsoft webview2APIsample -> scenario navigate to custom scheme via webResourceRequested :

step 1 : goto Scenario "navigate to custom scheme via webResourceRequested" this goto the page "wv2rocks://domain/ScenarioCustomScheme.html" step 2 : goto Scenario "Save As"/"Programmatic Save As" : this create a deleted file.

@jls28, thanks for the repro steps - let me get back to the thread once I understand it more.

I have an update regarding this strange issue.

Previously, I was using an old UDF (User data folder), likely created with an outdated WV2 runtime version.

Today, I switched to a newly created UDF, and it behaves quite differently.

Interestingly, the problem no longer occurs with this new UDF.

Also I remarked one other problem with the old "User data folder", the autosave password option don't work very well.

This is definitely an old profile issue.

• When using a profile created over a year ago, the problem persists.
• Creating a new user data folder with a fresh default profile resolves the issue.
• However, if the new default profile is replaced with the old one, the problem returns.
