The Edge Wallet CANNOT sync or even locally edit passwords
Platform:
Macbook Pro Intel chip, Edge version, Mac OS 14.4.1 (23E224)
Stable: 124.0.2478.67,
DEV: 126.0.2552.0
(Both have the same prob)
Pre-cons:
Sync (including password) already turned on,
The same personal account, no probs met in my iPhone Edge app and another Macbook Air (M1-chip) desktop Edge.
Problem:
The Passwords section is all empty (edge://wallet/passwords?source=assetsSettingsPasswords)
Click "Add," enter some info for testing, then click "Save." A prompt pop-up says, "Password has been added successfully." But nothing happened; the passwords section is still empty, just like I did nothing just now.
In the "Personal Info" section of the Wallet, I choose one record and edit it. The edit takes effect and gets synced successfully in my Macbook Air (M1-chip) desktop Edge.
Try to add a new profile; the same issue exists there.
Uninstall Edge in my Macbook Pro (Intel chip), delete the `$home/Libray/Application Support/Microsft Edge` folder, then re-download and install the latest Edge pkg. The same issue exists.
- Freshly install Edge DEV, without account login, go wallet-passwords -> add one -> success prompt- -> nothing happened, still empty.
I am wondering whether this issue relates to the file path that Edge wallet storing the passwords. It may not have enough permissions to write on that path?
