Edge 84 begins rolling out with Collections, PDF improvements, and more

[silversurfer]

Microsoft has begun rolling out version 84 of the Edge browser to users in the stable channel. The release comes just two days after Chrome released version 84 to the desktop. The Redmond giant aligned the release of its browser with that of Chrome since both are built on the same open-source platform.
 
While Edge 83 was a major update that brought extension sync and dynamic profile switching, Edge 84 brings a bunch of small yet useful features relating to Collections, PDF improvements, and enhancements to accessibility features, along with a list of security updates. What is still not here is the ability to sync history or tabs. The browser originally shipped without those features. Though those features are present in the settings, they are grayed out and listed as coming soon.
 
Collections is getting a few new features, starting with performance improvements. The firm says that actions such as exporting Collections data to Excel will be much faster. The tool also received a new note feature that lets users pin notes right to a page or place them separately in a Collection. Users can also change the background color of these notes.
