# Test Feature in Canary
2+
3+
The latest runtime changes are first shipped in the WebView2 runtime in the Edge Canary Browser. If you would like to test the new changes with your application, here's a suggested way to do so:
4+
5+
1. Download [Edge Canary](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/download/insider)
6+
2. Run the following command in a PowerShell with Administrative Priviledges:
7+
`REG ADD HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\ChannelSearchKind /v <your_app.exe> /t REG_DWORD /d 1`
8+
3. Restart your application, and you should be able to see that your application picks up the latest runtime.
9+
10+
To remove the registry key added, run the following:
11+
`REG DELETE HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebView2\ChannelSearchKind`
12+
