Problem with favorites bar
Am I the only one having problem with favorites bar in the latest version of Edge dev? Every time I edit something in favorites (delete favorite,show icon only) its reverts back after I re-open Edge ...
- Hi,
no you're not alone,
"show Icon only" currently is not registered in sync servers so every time that Edge insider periodically checks with favorites sync server, it reverts them back.
It's happening for me as well as lots of others that have posted about this before.
"delete favorites" issue is also related. I even lost some of my favorites thinking that Edge automatically synced all of them but I shouldn't have trusted the green icon.
obvious sync needs so much improvements so my suggestion is to regularly make a backup of your favorites into an HTML file from Edge settings: edge://favorites/
or use another stable browser such as Google chrome as your back up storage
Had that problem. Deleted the text the "old fashioned" way by using "edit" and deleting the text. So far, so good, but if it returns, I will simply type a period (dot) in the text box which should not eat up too much space.
