[Problem/Bug]: "System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException(HRESULT: 0x887A002D)" issue when using WebView2CompositionControl on older Windows 10 versions.

What happened?

Hello?

I'm really happy to see that you have released a WebView2CompositionControl to solve the Z-Index problem in WPF WebView2.

However, I was wondering if you could confirm the conditions for running the pre-release build.

My program is built with .NET 4.6.2, WPF, x86 and I use WebView2 1.0.2730-prerelease to deploy WebView2CompositionControl.

When I run this program on a developer PC, it works fine, but on some PCs, I get the following error

Error stack:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The application requested an operation that depends on a missing or mismatched SDK component. (Exception in HRESULT: 0x887A002D)

The components on the PC that caused this error were

• Windows 10 21H2 (LTSC)
• DirectX 12
• .NET Framework 4.8
• WebView2 Runtime 127.x (x86, x64)

ℹ️ This PC is being used as a kiosk PC and uses Windows 10 LTSC.
This makes it difficult to update the Windows version.

What can I do to resolve this issue?
For reference, I did not encounter this issue when using the WPF WebView2 control on the same WebView2 version.

Thanks.

Repro steps

1. install the Microsoft.Web.WebView2 1.0.2730-prerelease Nuget package, place and build the WebView2CompositionControl in your .NET 4.6.2, x86, WPF app.

2. When you run the app, you will receive the following error: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The application requested an operation that depends on a missing or mismatched SDK component. (Exception in HRESULT: 0x887A002D)
   An error occurs.

3. However, if you use a WebView2 control instead of a WebView2CompositionControl in the same Nuget package, this issue does not occur and it runs fine.

To resolve this issue add Windows optional feature "Graphic tools".
For example using the following PowerShell command:

dism /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Tools.Graphics.DirectX~~~~0.0.1.0

The correct version of the package can be found using the following PowerShell command:

dism.exe /Online /Get-Capabilities /Format:Table | Select-String "Tools.Graphics.DirectX"

As you said, after installing the "Graphic tools", I confirmed that the program runs well.
Thank you so much!!!! 😊😊😊
