Microsoft continues the work on improving Microsoft Edge, and this week, the company shipped a new build as part of the Dev channel.

Microsoft Edge Dev has therefore reached version 105.0.1329.1, and according to the official changelog, it includes a new button in the PDF toolbar to share documents.

Needless to say, this isn’t necessarily a breaking change, but for those working with PDF documents on a regular basis, sharing the files is now a lot more straightforward and convenient.

In addition, Microsoft Edge now comes with a mute indicator on tabs when the browser is muted in the volume mixer. This obviously comes in handy to more users, especially as muting tabs is essential for many of us.

Other than that, Edge 105 also comes with a series of small changes, including an update to the max URL length in the side pane for visual search.

As expected, Microsoft has included a series of fixes as well, and you can find all of them below:  

  • Fixed a crash when getting the page count in print preview 
  • Fixed the downloads toolbar icon disappearing after a download started and the flyout was closed
  • Fixed the blank space in the Guest mode indicator
  • Fixed a crash on iOS when closing tabs while Read Aloud is active 
  • Fixed a crash when restoring tabs from a previously closed window
  • Fixed a crash when adding a Favorites folder on iOS
  • Fixed an issue where Microsoft Reward was not displaying in Settings on mobile

It’s important to keep in mind that all these improvements are currently exclusive to testers who are running the Dev builds on their devices. If you’re not comfortable with running pre-release software, you should just stick with the stable channel and wait for this version to make its way to production devices.
