Recently upgraded to the new chromium version of Edge.

The pen & ink settings aren't the same as the last version.

Not able to change the pen color, pen size, select pencil or highlighter if I open a pdf file in edge & try to write on it.

What happened to the choices?

Are there settings to change them?

Do I have to do a screen shot first?

Used to be able to write in real time on an open pdf file.

    yes, at the moment it is possible to uninstall edge Chromium and restore the legacy edge.

    settings -> apps -> apps & features

    click on Microsoft edge and click the uninstall button

    I have just tried uninstalling, when completed, it opened legacy edge to ask why i uninstalled Edge.

    although the task bar icon is not automatically restored, you should be able to find Edge in the start menu list and pin it to the taskbar.

    I am sorry you didn't find the information helpful

    the choices are not available in edge chromium.

    there are no settings that will enable the feature.

    you could take a screenshot and use snip & sketch to annotate it.

    Hi MikeDad3611

    microsoft is continuing to develop features in Edge chromium, there are a number of features that are yet to be added (or improved)

    you can send feedback to the development team (Alt+Shift+I) perhaps they will prioritise this feature if enough users ask.

    I didn't mean your info wasn't helpful.

    Thanks for your reply.

    Is it possible to revert back to the prior version of edge if I don't like the chromium version yet?

    I upgraded too early & I miss those features that I used extensively.
