Microsoft Edge 128.0.2739.1 is out in Dev Channel with fixes for printing crashes and more

Microsoft Edge 128.0.2739.1 is this week's feature update for Edge Insiders in the Dev Channel. Like previous updates, this release focuses primarily on fixing bugs and minor issues. However, it also introduces one, which, oddly, has already been fixed in the Canary Channel.

After updating to 128.0.2739.1, you may notice that many pages crash with the error code Status Access Violation. Therefore, if you use Microsoft Edge Dev as your main browser, you better switch to a more stable channel for now.
