*Updated 9/3* Syncing in Microsoft Edge Preview Channels
Hi All,
We have rolled out a fix to the problem where clients were reporting error on sync. We expect an app restart should get the client back into a functional state for sync now. We so much appreciate your patience and willingness to help all this while. Apologies that it took us time to get this fix across to you. If you still see any errors, please submit using in-app feedback button (and drop me a private message so that we jump on it faster). Sincere thanks for working with us on building a better product.

Deleted Thanks for trying our beta channel. We have recently updated this article (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Articles/Updated-9-3-Syncing-in-Microsoft-Edge-Preview-Channels/m-p/510159) to reflect the latest status of sync. As called out in the article, Extension sync is not yet enabled. Your settings are expected to sync. Which settings were you expecting to sync from Canary to Beta channel?
when Stable will be released, it will make the difference even bigger..
My point was that all settings currently defined in both should be synced between any two versions. I realize you can't sync the ones that are not currently defined in one or the other.
- Yes that's right, hopefully they'll fix it in the next major update for Beta
currently even between 2 Canaries or Canary and Dev, things like bookmarks get duplicated along the way!Seems like everyone has slightly different results which is worrisome. Between canary and dev and between canary and beta I had no duplication of favorites, but I had quite a few settings that didn't sync.
