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.)

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,
David

I guess I clicked on the best response button too quickly, I'm still not able to utilize this method of what Gunnar had stated " When you want to select several consecutive Favorites, hold down the Shift key and click on the first and last Favorite." This morning I decided to re-install the beta version of chromium edge, while setting up the browser, when I came to the option to setup the syncing function I unchecked all of the checked boxes within that window and then clicked the cancel button. After I got to the last setup screen and clicked on the finish button, I decided to check and see what might in my favorites folder, much to my surprise there were a bunch of favorite's already in there. What I'd like to do would be to delete everything in my favorites folder and start fresh. Now if I can just get that accomplished I'll be a happy chromium edge user.

Davy49 I just tried it on my end, and selecting through the "press shift and click" method is working. Additionally, you can also open up the Favorites manager and press CTRL + A, which will select all the favorites.
If that still doesn't work for you, can you please submit feedback through the browser so our devs can take a look?

Thanks again for your reply, in your latest reply you stated "I just tried it on my end, and selecting through the "press shift and click" method is working." Also, "Additionally, you can also open up the Favorites manager and press CTRL + A, which will select all the favorites." The last option is what corrected my issue, I'm using a logitech wireless keyboard, I really don't know if that prevented me from utilizing the 'normal' shift & down arrow method or not, but at least now the favorite's that I needed to delete are.
David 🙂
