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

    Microsoft got rid of the inking feature on this browser. This was a CRITICAL component in my decision to buy a surface pro 7. They HAVE to bring this feature back. I am a school teacher and I was going to use the inking abilities to help teach virtually!! I am so let down by this decision. Please bring it back.

    I agree! I have been trying to find the pen icon for days. The main reason I got this laptop was that I could have the inking capabilities. It is so helpful with my school work where I read a lot of articles and I have to take notes. Now it is gone and I do not have a way to transfer articles to my notes app!!! My next laptop will not be with Microsoft if this is the case from now on!!! Apple can now take my money instead!!!

    Inking in web pages would be available by end of the September in the Dev/Canary branches of Microsoft Edge. Expect more information about the stable release in the future.
