What did you expect to see and what you saw instead?
I wanted to specify userdata path in windows, so I located the call to CreateCoreWebView2EnvironmentWithOptions in webview.
Sadly, I found that the userdata path was hardcoded to %APPDATA%\[program executable name].
I think an optional parameter that specify userdata path can be added to webview::webview::webview(bool debug = false, void *wnd = nullptr) in windows. Or at least provide a function to get where userdata went so that I can delete it on request or use some symlink magic.
Not clear about Linux or MacOS backend, but they should have an option to specify userdata path?
Here is my commit to enable to specify userdata path on Windows: TsXor@52dc59e
I only modified the Windows part, which is not enough for a PR, so I put it here.
Thanks for sharing!
