Thanks for the tip I got this .bat to work between Chrome & EdgeBeta with the following path tweaks (as at Jan20 anyway):

    @Raheel605's solution is only one way, from Chrome to Edge but if you're going to go that way, copy the Favicons file too.

      Or configure a tool like https://freefilesync.org/ to sync the bookmark folders two-way once in a while.

      I am now trying the EverSync extension, so far so good between chrome and edge.

        This is also what I'm looking for. Simple sync edge --> server and overwrite server --> chrome.
