I broke favorites sync!
Not sure what happened, I messed with it some more and something came up telling me to sign out and in again to re-enable sync. I did so, and now sync is staying enabled. However, the option to sync "Favorites" is greyed out.
birdiewins I have the Microsoft Authenticator app and I can use that to log in, but I haven't flipped any setting that requires 2FA. Anyway, sync has been working for me after the first shaky day. Not sure what I did, but it eventually prompted me to sign out and in again, and it has been working since then. The "favorites" toggle is greyed out but it enables itself if I sit on that screen for several seconds, and I have confirmed that "favorites" sync is functional between two PCs. (I wish that it would also sync with Edge iOS...)
Thank you Aaron44126 for your feedback and patience so far. I am sorry that you faced these issues while using sync. We identified issue in one of the earlier builds and believe that it is resolved now. If you still face issues with sync, please submit feedback using the in-app feedback mechanism (smiley button in the menu) as that helps us collect diagnostic data and act faster on the issue.
We are working on enabling sync across Edge on other platforms (MacOS, iOS, Android etc.). It will be available in upcoming builds.
akhator Just curious, when is a new build expected to land on the Dev channel? I know they are weekly but we are going on a bit over a week on the same build. When a new one shows up, I will check it out.
I will also mention, I have had a few times when I have seen it "double up" a Favorite (add what appears to be an exact copy of an existing entry in the same location) and I'm guessing that sync is responsible for that. Haven't found a solid way to reproduce it.
