    Enable Text Highlights for PDF does not exist inedge://flags/

    No, because the feature is now enabled by default. Are you not seeing the highlighter on the PDF toolbar?

    Hi, anyone experiencing the same problem? 

    Now the highlighter is back while reading PDF on Ms Edge. However, when I am using my surface pen to highlight as usual, the highlighting function didn't move with my surface pen s motion... I can just click to highlight one word or use mouse to highlight smoothly.. 

    And it seems that the eraser got some issue too

    Me too have the same problem.

    Miss the old edge...
