FAVORITES: If You Want Normal People To Like Your Browser, You Have To Do MUCH Better With Favorite
Dan Sarandrea, Dennis5mile Thank you both for your feedback. We are still working on the Favorites page, but we hear you. Beyond bulk moving, and better performance what would you expect to see in the management page? How often do you actively manage your favorites?

I would like everything that Dan Sarandrea has mentioned plus just to be able to D&D any file/folder to where I want immediately and not have to click and hold and wait, and wait, and wait till it comes to life before I can D&D it. And some one mentioned in this thread about the Fav bar and only showing icons, which if you remember is something I posted about way back at the beginning of all this ..... on this post here Favorites Bar... Elliot Kirk
Other than that I'm good

- RedBetaJun 05, 2019Iron ContributorI don't manage my favorites often enough....because it is so difficult. When working a project I tend to dump links to pages of info I will need to look at into a folder. at the end of the project there are some links I would like to keep and others that should be deleted.
but.....what I have is folders with unneeded link / dead links because they are so old / duplicate folders because of either the import mess or sync issues..........
I used to have a deadlink / favorite icon checking app ----but that was long ago (PCmag). - maryandmikeJun 05, 2019Copper Contributor
And please, please, let us show "icons only" on the favaorites bar, like IE.

Elliot Kirk As long as you make it so the Favorites Manager can do everything to Favorites that File Explorer can do to files, you'll be OK. That means using the same keyboard conventions (Shift to select contiguous multiples and CTRL to select non-contiguous multiples, folder creation and nesting, and the option to set single favorites at the top level of the hierarchy rather than only in folders).
And either get rid of the "Imported from Blah" folder, or at least offer the option to import Favorites into that folder or to import at the same hierarchical level as the source.
