- Reset and remove Microsoft account from all other devices that are using the Edge browser sync (like other Windows OS, phones etc), after that your device will be the only one connected to the Edge sync, now press CTRL + A to select all bookmarks and then press delete, wait some time like an hour and then try to connect other devices (if any) back to the sync and see what happens. that 1 hour should give Microsoft Edge enough time to sync everything with online server, but remember after you delete everything you have to wait 1 hour before adding anything back. I hope they improve performance of the servers soon.
i'd also suggest you to do this on Canary version since it's more recent and has more fixes and updates.

Is there a way to know what all devices are syncing the edge chrome favorites. I have deleted all devices from account.microsoft.com, except the one i am using, but the deleted favorites keep appearing all over again
- There is no such feature in Edge inside yet. on Firefox I can see my other syncing devices but on Edge I can't.
