I have a problem with printing from the latest version of Microsoft Edge. When I select some text on the browser and choose Print → 'Save As Pdf', the download starts but never finishes. How can I fix this? Is this a common issue for all the users of the latest version of Edge?

I have tried restating the PC, Resetting the browser, stopping all the extension etc. to fix it. but it doesn't work? Should I switch to Chrome?

    Fuzzy John - you got the process.

    An added bit of information - I have found the only way to completely stop EDGE is to use TASK MANAGER - by doing that it will leave the CRDOWNLOAD file on computer and it can be renamed.

    Hey, it is a pain.

    Oh! It looks like when Version 121.0.2275.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit) gets released as the updated EDGE the problem will go away. Been playing with the CANARY version this morning.

    Sounds like my way is simpler.

    Has anybody noticed similar behaviour when downloading PDF files aswell?

    They download to 100% but never finishes, leaves a temp file in the downloads folder.

    Edge Version 120.0.2210.61 is hosed on "Save to PDF"

    MS R&D forgot to feed the unit, integration, and system test minions again.
