Hi, firstly thank you for your great job.

How can i disable all external links in window?
For example, let's open a youtube video page, but clicking on other links on the page does not open a new window.

I use this snippet inside my windows

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {
    document.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
      if (e.target.href && e.target.host != window.location.host) {
        e.preventDefault();
        e.stopPropagation();
        // do something else...
        return false;
      }
    }, true);
  });

@danatcofo Thanks for your answer, but I need to change my question.
I open a new window with youtube embed url.
There are different links of youtube on the video screen that opens.
Clicking on these links opens other windows.
I want to block these windows.

It's probably similar concept. Google it for a web page. It would be the same method in electron. Remember electron is just web pages with some raisins added.

I guess an interception is not allowed inside the iframe.
