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

    WAIT, you did away with the #1 thing that made me use Edge over Google? WHY? That was one of the best feature. I do love some of the updates, but what gives Edge the edge over Google now?  I have been racking my brain to figure out where this stupid pen icon went to . I'm so glad that I found these comments finally . I loved and relied heavily on that pen icon . I'm just not sure if edge is worth continuing over Google Now . Sigh. Bring this feature back, please.

    This is awful! I relied so heavily on this pen icon, please bring it back! This is the main reason why I got the surface pro, so I could write on documents!

    Agree, this is VERY disappointing. I bought my first surface within the past 6 months. At first, I had been using Chrome as my primary browser until a Microsoft associate pointed out the ability to mark up webpages in Edge using the Surface Pen. This was a game changer and I've been using Edge ever since (or at least until I I "upgraded" to the latest version). I cannot understand the rationale behind this change :( --very disappointing. 

    If anyone knows how I can go back to the old version of EDGE, please advise.

    so the latest update has done away with a feature I was looking forward to using?  I just got my pc a few months ago, I saw the pen icon, but never used it.  Now, it's...gone??  Not good!
