AutoImportAtFirstRun policy not working since v97.0.1072.69
- Apr 01, 2022
muene Hello! We just released MS Edge Stable Version 100.0.1185.29 (Microsoft Edge release notes for Stable Channel | Microsoft Docs) and it should contain the fix for the AutoImportAtFirstRun policy.
Let us know if you are still having issues. Thanks!

Hi Kelly_Y
All items, not just favorites, are not imported.
This is a screenshot of Edge://Policy.
Also, the detailed reproduction procedure is as follows.
1. set up this registry
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge]
"HideFirstRunExperience"=dword:00000001
"AutoImportAtFirstRun"=dword:00000002
"StartupBoostEnabled"=dword:00000000
2. Install Google Chrome and add your favorites, etc.
3. Delete the existing Edge user profile if it exists.
"C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data"
4. Start Edge.
In v97.0.1072.62, the Google Chrome profile is implicitly imported, but not in v97.0.1072.69.
Thanks.
Roald_Amundsen Thanks for the additional information. Have you tried to see if the issue still reproduces in v98 or newer builds like Beta Channel v99?
