Workaround for using Gmail Account to Sync in Microsoft Edge
Reza_Ameri-Archived I am totally against using Google Account in Microsoft Edge, but this is not the required solution the insiders want. This method creates a MSA with @gmail.com alias, still different from Google account.
Yes, you are correct it won't sync Google account and that is why I mentioned "Workaround" in the title. The scenario is we do have users who are mainly use Gmail for everything and we used to ask them to setup new Outlook.com or Microsoft Account to be able to Sync options in Gmail.
In this case, they will create account with same username and password as Gmail, so they don't have to remember two usernames and two accounts.
There are users who just want to enter one username and password and login without having multiple account with multiple passwords.
My recommendation is of course moving to Microsoft Account to enjoy full experience.
