Microsoft Edge Legacy side by side experience no longer possible on Windows 10 2009

Hello,   Why would you remove the option to use Microsoft Edge legacy side by side with Edge Chromium, especially when all the features from the old build are not included in Edge Chromium, most no...

That is fine.

If you have used Edge legacy PDF tool you would understand how seamless and simple the entire process is.

Deleted Ok I will check if there is Edge Legacy on my laptop (right now I have 2004 version of Windows) and I will keep you updated.

    I don't know.

    I am just frustrated and annoyed, and I am voicing my disapproval on here, that is all.

    There is. Microsoft gives you the ability to enable Microsoft Edge legacy, and use it side by side with Edge Chromium.

    See

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployedge/microsoft-edge-sysupdate-access-old-edge

    and

    https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/144061-enable-microsoft-edge-side-side-browser-experience-windows-10-a.html

     

    On Window 10 2009, Microsoft took that ability away (I can't find their reason for why). You can no longer use Edge legacy on Windows 19 2009 without having to use temporary and broken solutions that just disappears every time Edge Chromium or Windows 10 updates.
