Awesomium web view is not loading url - c#

I have an awesomium web view in a winform. The software was working fine until today when the web view is not loading the page even after setting the source property programmatically. When I move my cursor on top of the control it just shows the busy icon.
I have added a lot of other controls using devexpress (and the webview was working fine earlier with Devexpress as well).
I remade a test project with a devexpress ribbon and just the webview and the webview loaded fine.
Has anyone come across this issue and can shed light on this matter?

I suggest deleting your current control of awesomium and re add it. If that doesn't work, delete it again and add that dll to the toolbox. The dll is located in program files or program files x86, under awesomium.

Visual Studio WebBrowser Control does not show PDFs anymore

I used the WebBrowser control to display PDFs in a Visual Studio C# Application.
This solution was working for a long time. But suddenly it does not display PDF documents anymore.
But using the WebBrowser, the screen stays gray for .pdf files.
When setting the project explititly to x86 target platform, it works again. With Any or x64 it doesn't show the PDFs, but x86 is no solution for me, because my application needs x64.
Here's a question extremely similar to mine, but there was no definitive answer to the problem.
WPF WebBrowser control does not show PDFs anymore (.NET5 Acrobat Reader ActiveX)
Problem has been resolved in Windows Update.
"Internet Explorer 11 and applications that use the WebBrowser control may fail to open PDFs 64-bit versions of IE11 and applications that use the 64-bit version of the WebBrowser control may show PDFs as gray.

My app icon is not visible in share menu windows 10 - UWP

Icon is not being displayed in Share menu next to my app name. But its displayed correctly in icon
I have added icons to all the options in visual studio
The assets you are using are right. At first, I didn't see any problem when I used RTM OS version (Version 1511, OS Build 10586.494). However, from your screenshot, it seems you are using Insider Preview Build. So I tested it again on Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14393 and I can reproduce your issue.
Actually, your app icon is not invisible. It seems that System has cached the app icon used in Share menu when your app is deployed for the first time. After this, even we reset the app icon and redeploy the app, the icon in Share menu still won't change. I guess you've run your app with the default assets before you set your own assets. So in Share menu, it still use the default icon, but in Start panel, it is correct. You can created a new project with your own assets and then run this new project, you icon should be able to display in Share menu correctly.
This issue seems only affect Insider Preview Build. For Insider Preview issues, please feel free to share feedbacks with Microsoft. You can report this issue with Windows Feedback app. Your feedback has made Windows better!
All Logos Related to UWP are stored in Package.appxmanifest. Edit it using an xml editor. See if there is any image that is still a default icon.

ActiveX controll update

I have working web page, that uses ActiveX control
ActiveX control was developed by previous programmer (he is out of reach now)
I did some changes in ActiveX control source code and now I need to somehow change current ActiveX control for my changed.
So my question is
Q: How to change old ActiveX control for new one on server.
Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide.
If the existing ActiveX is in written in C++ and visual studio, then simply follow the following steps:
Make the required changes in the source code.
Build the upgraded ActiveX control using the F5 key on the Visual
Studio.
Copy the ActiveX to the server and manually register by writing the
following code in the cmd with admin rights. * regsvr32
"location of your ActiveX control"
Now you can use your updated ActiveX control either in IE or any other supported container.

CEFSharp Not Loading, and showing invisible area

I am trying to use cefsharp so i downloaded the repository from their website and tried to copy and paste every thing as it is from the windows forms application to my application in order to use the ChromiumWebBrowser.cs that comes with it... however when i run my application it only display a white area (sometimes just invisible hole) with no error or anything... have been trying for over 30 hours with no luck although it is running normally at the example project.
You dont need to copy any thing, just install Cefsharp from Nugetmanager of Visual studio.
GetStartfromhere
See this related issue for suggestions: CefSharp WinForms Web Browser Won't Display
If that doesn't help a few particular items you should check:
Work your way from the CefSharp.MinimalExample repo which now contains a WinForms example
Start your project by using the NuGet package (as mentioned in the SO answer above). It takes care of copying all needed Chromium resources
Make sure your NuGet version is at least 2.7
Setup your project configuration as either x86 or x64 ... with AnyCPU the NuGet magic won't work currently

WPF and Windows Forms Mixed Environment Issue

I have a WPF dll with a user control. It works just fine when I use it in a WPF project as a reference.
I needed to test in a mixed environment. So I created a Windows Forms solution, added the reference to both the WPF dll and the WindowsFormsIntegration dll. I placed an ElementHost in the form.
In the code behind, I called using on the WPF user control namespace, created an object of the user control and assigned it as the child of the ElementHost. Till this point, intellisense also seemed to work fine. The moment I built the project, however, I got a build error saying that the WPF namespace that I had used was not found.
All dlls are built in .NET 3.5 and the client solution is also in .NET 3.5. Is this a known issue? What could be off with this scenario?
Can you please follow the following link to check whether you have referred all the dll's which is necessary to run WPF custom control in Winform
