Hi, we have been using EO.WebBrowser for a long time and we encountered with the several exception on latest updates for Windows 8.1.
Firstly the browser didn't work and we updated to 3.0.97 version. We are using WebBrowser in TabControl of WPF application, so it is tabbed browser. After update some tabs are working fine, but others shows white screen and our exception logger says "WebView has already been disposed". It is strange, because if we open the same url in the tab, which loaded correctly - it works fine. Seems some tabs becomes disposed just on initial Initialization of WebBrowser. Please help us to fix such problem, it's urgent for us

Hi,

A recent Windows update did break EO.WebBrowser but we have already worked around the problem. We are not aware of any problem with the latest build. If you still have problem, please try to isolate the problem into a test project and send us the test project. We will be very happy to take a look as soon as we have that. You can find instructions for test project here:

Thanks!

I think I man experiencing something similar - I am trying to replace Awesomium but I am struggling with the NewWindow often being blank (sometimes not even the trial warning label at the bottom). I run Windows 8.1 with all updates.

So I created a very simple application master and popup windows - on the master I have a WebControl and a button that opens a new window also with a WebControl.

Both windows have

<eo:WebControl Grid.Row="1">
<eo:WebControl.WebView>
<eo:WebView Url="www.google.com"></eo:WebView>
</eo:WebControl.WebView>
</eo:WebControl>

The button on the master window is simply

PopupWindow popupWindow = new PopupWindow();
popupWindow.Show();

Hi,

We are not aware of any problems like this. We will try to reproduce this on our end and then go from there.

Thanks!

I also noticed that if I launch a popup window while the browser on the MainWindow is still loading then the popup is a blank screen (not even displaying the trial label at the bottom).
