HotCakeX cjc2112 dvdwnd Hey guys. It seems that favorites syncing is back to normal in the latest Canary build .328, but it also created some duplicates. You may try to update and see if it works.

    HotCakeX Great tip! I tried it, got rid of all the duplicates, waited for the changes to propagate, only to see every single one (plus two new ones, I think) reappear. So, sync is doing something, but it isn't helpful, and it doesn't even result in all Edge installs having the same set of duplicated settings.

    (Sad trombone.)

      I understand, well it's all beta now, so I suggest keep your bookmarks/favorites in a different browser such as Google chrome stable, and don't use Edge browser as your main one, or if you want to use it as your main browser but save all your favorites on Google chrome.
      I do this personally because Edge sync is not working correctly.

        HotCakeX My Beta is working correctly, and that's why I'm using it exclusively now.
