Hello,
printing is broken
正式版 119.2151.97和这个版本都存在一个问题:即使在设置中关闭了“在Microsoft Edge 关闭后继续运行后台扩展和应用”以及“启动增强”,在关闭Edge后,进程依然保持在后台;进程中的“浏览器”一直处于活动状态(有cpu占用和磁盘读写)。
In Microsoft Edge Dev, a peculiar issue occurs when it has multiple tabs open, and its window is positioned so that its right edge touches the right edge of the display. When you click the Close icon located in the top-right corner of the window, an unusual behavior unfolds: the Edge Dev window starts moving gradually towards the left until it stops when it touches the left edge of the display.

It's important to note that this behavior is specific to the Edge Dev version and doesn't occur in the release version of Edge. The Edge Dev build I'm using is Version 121.0.2248.1 (Official build), and it's the 64-bit version.

@Paul_VC Hey, does this happen in the monthly Beta version?  Or are you thinking this could've been introduced in this release?

Hi. Any link to install this version plz?? the newer V. 121.0.2256.2 crashes on me. Thanks
OK, I found it myself! Just incase could help someone else.
