Disable Wi-Fi and location services for windows 11?

[Noobicle]

Hello, some users have reported that the latest Windows update have started asking for permission to use location services.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/nativewifi/wi-fi-access-location-changes

Testing it appears that CefSharp.BrowserSubprocess is triggering it. Whilst looking for a way to disable it I found that the location services was removed quite a while ago;

However something still seems to be triggering it.

Confirmed to be happening in V92 and latest version.

Any ideas on what I can turn off or disable to prevent this?

The information in this link is old and outdated. CEF supports Geolocation when using Chrome Styling.

Since CEF switched entirely to using Chrome Bootstrap it's likely some of the same initialization code is used on startup.

You can try something like the follow (I've not tested this exact code).

await CefThread.ExecuteOnUiThread(() =>
{
    ctx.SetContentSetting(null, null, ContentSettingTypes.Geolocation, ContentSettingValues.Block);
});

If that doesn't work then asking on https://www.magpcss.org/ceforum/viewforum.php?f=6
