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?
Opening and reading PDF files in Microsoft Edge on Windows 11
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
The answer is to update the Edge browser to the latest browser version....apparently your IT department aren't experts if they have not done so yet....
Sorry, but this issue is NOT completely resolved. I STILL cannot Save to PDF, Print to Microsoft PDF or print to PDF. Nothing works!
I am using Version 120.0.2210.91 (Official build) (64-bit) - updated today!
KUDOS to you, Jeremy C. Radwan, for your workaround.
Mitchell - MSFT (Microsoft Agent | Moderator) clearly didn't understand and research what Shaon Singha presented above - it 'never finishes'.
You plainly presented this new 'Save as PDF' program BUG and you gave us Microsoft Edge browser users a workaround that will suffice until Microsoft recognizes this as a BUG.
I get the message 'File in Use' 'because the file is open in Microsoft Edge' when I try to delete 'Unconfirmed 524799.crdownload'.
I get the message 'Your file is still downloading' when I close Microsoft Edge.
Only when I close Microsoft Edge can the 'Unconfirmed 524799.crdownload' file be deleted.
I feel Microsoft should compensate you in some way for your workaround to this new 'Save as PDF' BUG.
The extra workaround time and telling the user this is not a new BUG is unacceptable.
FIVE STARS for you, Jeremy C. Radwan.
Well, if you had followed the ENTIRE THREAD, you would have seen the problem was correct on the 14'th or 15'th if you forced an update to EDGE.

Second that.
