Opening and reading PDF files in Microsoft Edge on Windows 10
This browser is no longer supported.
Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.
Whenever I needed to view a pdf I always used Edge because it has a table of contents in the sidebar, but now that I'm using the new Edge, it no longer seems to have that, I was just wondering if this is a feature that hasn't been integrated yet, or if there's an alternate way of getting it back.

The table of contents feature is now available in the Stable release Edge 86 released October 9th.
Microsoft Edge release notes for Stable Channel | Microsoft Docs
This is terrible. They really need to bring the TOC feature back. Reading long pdfs is terrible without it.
I am having this same issue. I use PDF's for all my college courses and that feature was essential in navigating my textbooks especially during tests. I am able to access the table of contents with both Firefox and Chrome so I know it is not missing as stated above. It is a shame that I now have to switch to using another browser for all my classes so that I can have access to this feature. I tried opening my PDF's with the older Internet Explorer but the program keeps rerouting me to the sub-efficient Edge making this browser obsolete for my purpose.
Yeah they scrapped that feature for now it looks like. I also notice that scrolling through the pdf viewer on the new edge is very choppy and not fluid at all.
Hi,
As of now, TOC isn't available in the new Edge. It may or may not come - the latest status is as follows:
| Under Review | Enable navigation of PDF files via table of contents | 2 weeks |

The status should change to Planned if it goes live - No ETA, however. Feedback is updated every week, most likely Wednesday.
