Good evening.
After this last updating of Microsoft Edge, the pen icon is missing. I like to save and write on my Web pages. Can someone tell me how to fix this?
Thank you

Sad indeed. I understand the concept of Covid-delays but none of the earlier replies that I've seen mentioned anything about the return. Only that they got rid of it. I haven't gone through all the pages, though. Will keep watching this space.

I have attached the info, as I have got. The features have been delayed due to Covid-19. Sadly no ETA.

Resource means RAM and Storage. Essentially it affects battery life. Beebom reports Chrome lasted for only 3 hours, and Edge lasted 5:
Nevertheless, if you want to Restore Legacy Edge, see:

Thanks for the reply. As you said, however, you wouldn't recommend restoring the older version. You also said inking would be back soon. How soon?

Hi Helene,
Edge and Chrome share the same web rendering engine now. MSFT claims Edge uses less resources as compared to Chrome, which is one of the biggest complaints of Chrome.
While we have a way to uninstall newer version of Edge, we don't recommend the same. I'll let you know if you need.
Rest assured inking would be back soon.
Hi Sumit, I'm not sure what the resource use means in practical terms; I'm not that tech-savvy. Perhaps that's the only reason why it doesn't really matter to me. The only thing that I care about is the pen function. I use Chrome on my laptop and everywhere else. It's just on the Surface Pro that I use Edge. Please let me know when the feature's back. I'll be back then.
