Edge, most of the time.

WebView, only a couple of times, then you have to do it manually.
It is "suppose" to upgrade along with Edge.   HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
And it is not straight forward.  It is a an absolute pain in
the ass.

I use VulnDetect for identifying critical updates
https://secteer.com/vulndetect/

I do not rely on M$.

Speaking of pain-in-the-ass, here is my keeper on upgrading WebView:


Uninstall/Reinstall M$ Web View:

Reference(s):
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1194589/uninstalling-webview2-version-111-0-1661-54-on-win

Product Home Page:
    https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/

If reinstalling, download the above first (Evergreen Standalone 
Installer, usually x86)


** Shortcut: just run the reg below and then reinstall **

To uninstall WebView2 version 111.0.1661.54 and install an older version:

     Uninstall via Settings: Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & features, 
find Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime, and click Uninstall.

     Use Command Line: Try running the command as an admin if the 
setup.exe command doesn’t work:

     Cmd as admin:
       remove msedgeveiw entries from the registry (regedit, search)
       reg delete 
HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate\Clients\{F3017226-FE2A-4295-8BDF-00C3A9A7E4C5}

       cd "C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView\Application\1*\Installer"    if 32 bit
       setup.exe --uninstall --msedgewebview --system-level 
--verbose-logging --force-uninstall

Clean Up Residual Files: Check and delete any leftover folders in:

     del /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeWebView"
     del /s /q "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\EdgeWebView"
