Is it possible to get the url of a window?
I'm trying to detect if browser was redirected and find out where it was redirected.

Hey @ru-sh,

use from the chrome dev tool the console and type:
window.location.href

Another way is to send you the information over the IPC... As example:

Your HTML-View:
<script> var { ipcRenderer } = require("electron"); ipcRenderer.send("currentUrl", window.location.href); </script>

Your C# Part:
public IActionResult Index() { Electron.IpcMain.On("currentUrl", (url) => { // Here you get the url from url parameter }); return View(); }

I hope my answer helps you.
