Question: Can anyone else maybe with Surface Hardware reproduce this?
Edge Build: 96.0.1035.0
Reproduction: Use Surface Pen, happens instantly
Does not happen on:
Stable Build (I don't know if it was already a case in earlier builds as I didn't use the pen for a while.) Touch inputs.
It's maybe worth noting if it happens to more people here.
I did send a bug report just in case that this isn't known yet

You're not alone. There have been several similar reports in the Microsoft Community: Microsoft Edge/Bing keeps freezing and forcing a restart
Microsoft Edge Version 94.0.992.38 update gives BSOD in Win 10 with
Let's hope the feedback is pouring in. It may not be related to Edge, though.

I'm sure the issue I'm facing is related to that specific build of edge as it does not happen on the stable build or any other app.
That report seems not similar to mine as it's a whole different cause
Edit: didn't see second link thats related
I hope people try the reproduction in a safe environment to maybe pinch down some cases which could help the Edge Team

Yes this problem started today for me too, using Surface pen to markup pdf documents in Microsoft Edge on a Surface book. I have been doing this successfully for a long time without any problems.
I have restarted multiple times and then updated Windows 10 21H1 today.
It still crashes every time I try to use the Surface Pen in Edge.
Please help?

@YasinAkimura I have the same experience starting yesterday, it crashes again today. I'm using pen on Edge PDF too

This just happened to me on the desktop while using the pen. No Edge necessary. @YasinAkimura

The user whose thread I referred to has now reported that the problem doesn't exist on Windows 11 (Beta): Microsoft Edge Version 94.0.992.38 update gives BSOD in Win 10

Same issue here on Surface Go 2.
I have updated to 21H1 just before BSOD started. But that might be a coincidence.
Thanks for pointing out that it is a pen which is causing the issue. I have disabled Bluetooth and didn't have BSOD ever since. Still able to use the pen for input

@Alexandra-R if it helps in troubleshooting, this isn't isolated to Surface hardware. We use Lenovo gear (X1 Tablet Gen 3 with stylus) and we're getting reports that this BSOD has started happening over the last few days.

We are an organization of all Surface Pros 250+ and exclusively use Edge and we are having this issue with multiple users.

@YasinAkimura We're having the same issue on our site on the latest build, but have found that the issue is not present in the 96.0.1037.0 canary build - Hopefully this update gets pushed through soon!

Hey again everyone!
As some of you have already noticed, the fix for this was available in yesterday's Canary build! We're speeding it along to the other channels as well, thanks for your patience.
