      A new empty QtQuick project with this QML, and required web engine dependencies, will crash when clicking a link for a new view:

      import QtQuick 2.15
import QtQuick.Window 2.15
import QtWebEngine 1.11

Window {
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("Hello World")

    WebEngineView {
        anchors.fill: parent
        url: "https://www.qt.io"
    }
}

      Handling the signal newViewRequested(request) will avoid the crash. Documentation says not handling the signal, "the requested load will fail." I doubt a crash is the intended mechanic 

      I prefer the view does nothing at all.
