Bookmarks reappear after deletion

After I delete bookmarks they later reappear in Chromium Edge. If I delete them again it happens again.

Tom,

For myself this I think is happening following updates and it affects the Other Favorites folder exclusively. I have reported it to an Edge Team member. Anyone experiencing this should, also.

Cheers,
Drew

  HotCakeX The announcement is no longer there yet any bookmarks I delete just return the next time the browser is opened and if I move bookmarks then they show up in both places.
  I've logged a new issue here and linked this one:

    Hi, you're right the problem is still there.
    
    favorites sync is still the same as it was all the time, it has no duplicate prevention system, no method of preventing deleted favorites from showing up when multiple devices sync with the same Microsoft account.
    sync speed is so slow and when multiple machines are syncing at the same time, the sync engine gets confused and doesn't know which change to register and which change to propagate among other devices..
