    What happened to open, save or save as when you're trying to look at a pdf file.


    I really need that option to work for my emails and it's gone and I have spent many hours trying to figure it out. I literally need that to pop up. Things don't work correctly without it. This is the new Edge and on the old edge it was there. Anyone know how to get it back??

    Thanks

    :)

    microsoft print to pdf files will not open after saving

    We suggest that you save the PDF files on your device and check if the issue persists. You may also want to associate the PDF files to Microsoft Edge as the default program to make sure that you have a default application that will open all of your PDF files.
    Here are the steps:

    • Search for Default Programs.
    • Go to Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
    • Select the .pdf file type and then click the Change program button on the upper right of the
      Set Associations window.
    • Choose Microsoft Edge and then click OK.
    Let us know how it goes.
