Click on Restart button to apply the changes.
After doing this, if you open any PDF file using Edge browser default PDF View, you will find a new option called Page View in Toolbar.
Clicking the same option will show you two options Single Page and Two Page. Select Two Page and it will show the PDF in Two Page view.

Again, the Two-Page view for PDF is rolled out by the Edge Dev under Controlled feature rollout, so it is possible you might not see the flag.
