Edge suddenly stopped completing downloading PDFs after update yesterday. Cant uninstall. All files remain as "Unconfirmed XXXXX.crdownload". Tried all usual fixes, AV, clear history, turn off all extensions, repair/reinstall, different folder, etc. Chrome and all other browsers save just fine! Saving as webpages works fine too, just save as PDF does not.

Microsoft Edge | Favorites, history, and downloads | Windows 11

    Thank you for helping us make Microsoft Edge better than it was before.

    Funny... Introduce a bug, fix it and you have software better than it was before!

    I submitted a “send feedback msg” through Edge and received this from MS.

    Lets hope this is fixed soon.

    I'm taking an IT course and I've been saving a lot of documents as PDFs. After the update, I could no longer

    save them, as they would stop during the download process, However, the print>microsoft print to pdf workaround

    did work for me. Thank you.
