Edge 122.0.2365.52

he release notes contain the wording "Fixed various bugs and performance issues." and a reference to the following fixes:

• Fixed an issue where PDF text fields and dropdown values were rendered twice for certain files when using the Microsoft Edge built-in PDF reader powered by Adobe Acrobat.
• Fixed an issue where printing certain PDF files in landscape orientation with the "Fit to printable area" option resulted in incorrect printing.

Furthermore, there were some feature updates, which are described in the following list:

• Moving Managed Site Indicator (Briefcase icon) into the lock icon in the address bar omnibox. The briefcase icon which signals that a page is managed via admin policies, has been moved into the lock icon in the address bar. End users can view details about the protections for a given page by clicking the lock icon in the address bar and then clicking the briefcase icon. For more information, see Understand Data loss Prevention in Microsoft Edge.
• Deprecation of the image enhancement feature. To improve end user experience, the image enhancement feature is deprecated.
• Configure recommended policies in the Microsoft Edge management service. The Microsoft Edge management service now provides admins with the ability to set recommended policies. This gives end users permission to override their admin's policy configuration.
• Microsoft Edge has rebranded Web Capture to "Screenshot". Microsoft Edge changed the branding for Web Capture with an icon change and renamed the feature to "Screenshot". Users can easily use content from the web by taking a screenshot of a full page or a selected area. They can mark up the screenshot they took with a pen or touch later. Administrators can control availability using the WebCaptureEnabled policy. For more information, see Screenshot (microsoft.com)
