Syncing of bookmarks/favorites when first installing chromium edge issue.

Davy49 Yes, RAST-SE is absolutely correct! Doing Ctrl+Shift+O might be the easiest way to manage your Favorites if navigating through icons is less accessible.
Here's a screenshot of multiple options selected in the Favorites manager. (You can then click the blue "delete" button, or the "X" next to an individual entry.)

Davy49 Thanks for letting us know. What folders are the duplicates in? (There may be up to one copy of each favorite in the ~3 folders, but they shouldn't be duplicated in the same folder.) And have you seen this behavior in Canary or Dev? And if you're still encountering this, can you please submit feedback through the browser?
And as a heads-up, you can multi-select favorites in "about:favorites" to delete multiples at once.

I'm impressed to have you reply to me..thanks !! I guess I'm having another 'senior' moment, I'm referring to what you stated: " And as a heads-up, you can multi-select favorites in "about:favorites" to delete multiples at once." At this exact moment, I can't remember how to/where it's located.

- RAST-SEJan 22, 2020Copper ContributorEntering "about:favorites" (or "edge://favorites") in the adress bar is just another way to open the "Manage Favorites" page. I think it's easier to click on the Favorites icon and choose "Manage Favorites". (Pressing Ctrl+Shift+O is another option.)
When you want to select several consecutive Favorites, hold down the Shift key and click on the first and last Favorite. If you want to select or deselect an individual Favorite, hold down the Ctrl key and click on current Favorit. (You have to click on either the icon to the left of the link in each Favorite or in the area to the right of the link, otherwise you will open the corresponding page!)
/Gunnar in Sweden- Davy49Jan 23, 2020Iron ContributorHi Gunnar,
What a beautiful country you live in..to be honest, I've been watching video's on you tube about your country..I especially love watching train rides through the beautiful countryside. Back to the favorites issue, that's what I thought fawkes was referring to. I'll try your method..of course I thought that's what I was doing, but due to my age..sometimes I seem to be having more and more 'senior moments' than I used to. 🙂
Thanks,
