Microsoft released a new Chromium Edge build to the Edge Insiders, who are in the Dev Channel, bumping up the version to 90.0.789.1. The latest build in the Dev Channel comes with a simplified right-click menu for PDFs, new management policies for Quick View Office files, and more.
The latest build also includes several reliability improvements and a lot of bug fixes. Here is the complete changelog of the latest Microsoft Edge build 90.0.789.1 for the Dev channel Edge Insiders.

With the latest Microsoft Edge build 90.0.789.1, Microsoft adds options for a simplified right-click menu for PDFs. The company also states that the actual changes to the right-click menu are still being rolled out and hence the settings related to this functionality may not be functional at this moment.
The next feature of this build adds management policies for Quick View Office Files. This will enable you to control whether or not Office files can be opened directly in Microsoft Edge instead of being downloaded.
