2.8.0-prerelease.220118001 WebView2.dll Microsoft Store certification failures
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
See https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/WebView2Feedback/issues/1868
I’ve been struggling with apps that fail certification (“Attention needed”) because of WebView2.
Submitting it a few more times will eventually get it to pass. How or why I don’t know.

We have gotten word from the store team that the WACK tools have been updated so that should solve the API check issues during store ingestion. Of course if anyone does see any problems please let us know.
This is the same issue @myokeeh mentioned in the original post, so keep an eye on https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/WebView2Feedback/issues/1868 as well as this issue.
The Store team is looking into this. They’ve made one WACK improvement that I suspect will help, but we’re continuing to investigate.
