Sync Extensions

I read through the latest blog update and no where does it say where you guys are working on a way to sync extensions. I would love for such a feature to be enabled, so I don't have to reinstall them between new browsers (Like the new Beta Channel Browser). 

 

Here's a pic if you guys don't understand what I'm asking for.

 

Thanks for the understanding 🙂

    xhero25x  I am not sure if this is the same concept or not:

     

    It would be a good enhancement to allow for import of Extensions from other profiles. Offer a check list that the user could select from. I have multiple profiles (personal, personal 2, work) and typically use all the same extensions (pwd mngr, Ad Block, etc,) across each of the profiles. PIA & a lot of extra work to have to go search out and add the same extensions over & over to each individual profile.
    You would want to remove credentials from any extension that requires it. i.e. I have a different account for personal & work LastPass

      Hi Rick

       

      Sync works across multiple devices but the same profile, and not from one profile to another. 

       

      Thanks

  • Hi,

    Extensions syncing is gradually being rollout out to the Edge canary users

    Version 82.0.439.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

     

     

  • Thanks xhero25x - we hear you. Syncing extensions isn't ready just yet, stay tuned.

     

    Like you, I am anxious to have.  🙂 

     

    Thanks,

      DarrenMH Thanks. Since it wasn't mentioned in any of the blog posts, I just wanted to make sure they were aware of it. 🙂
