Remember PDF position disable option
Recently, Edge implemented an option so that when you open a previosuly opened pdf, it will remember position and zoom of the last time. See this (Microsoft Edge Remember where you left off in PDFs) . This is useful but not always, so i would like an option to disable this option. It can be annoying when comparing two files when making a pdf work.
Hey there serrgiofdezz!
You can head over to edge://settings/content/pdfDocuments from the address bar and toggle the PDF view settings ("Open PDFs to last viewed location when you reopen files") off.

Any suggestions? Does Kisok mode need to have separate settings?
- Thank you, really useful!
Was that a new option? I remember checking an option for that before posting...- It's a bit hidden in the site permissions, I had to search for it to remember where it was specifically. Glad it's the setting you're looking for though! 😃
