 ### Breaking Changes
 
 - The Go WebView2Loader allowed env variable and registry overrides to change the behaviour of WebView2. This is not possible when using the native WebView2Loader with Wails and should not be possible according to [PR](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/1771). Changed by @stffabi in [PR](https://github.com/wailsapp/wails/pull/2668)
