Wow, neat, it's 10-22-2020 and Microsoft still hasn't fixed this insanely simple sync issue? On top of the failure to sync search engines, what a dumpster fire. I like everything else about Edge but this is sad.
Switched to Edge from Chrome a couple of months ago and just noticed this problem, deleted a bunch of bookmarks on one PC and then noticed they were all still on another PC a few days later.
What are the exact conditions that this problem happens to you?
it was a thing for me few months ago but it's not happening again anymore. even when using Edge stable and Dev, both signed into my personal Microsoft account at the same time on the same PC.
- Nothing special, deleted a dozen bookmarks on Edge on one PC a few days ago, first time I really did that in Edge, and just noticed they were all still there today while on another PC. Both are signed in to the same account - bookmarks that I ADD on one PC show up just fine on others.
- Did you give enough time to Edge to sync back all the changes to the cloud? I mean did you let Edge stay open for a while, like at least 10-15 mins (really depending on how many bookmarks you deleted) ?
you can see any sync activity in here:
edge://sync-internals/
there is a trigger get updates button that forces Edge to get check for changes from the server. it's not normally needed but it's there if someone wants it.
