MicrosoftTSFleming Hello! I wanted to circle back as I think you are running in to the same issue as another user here in Tech Community. (Re: Microsoft Edge Group Policies for lists like Pop-ups do NOT combine -they replace unlike IE? - Microsoft Tech Community)
The team that manages MS Edge policies said currently the experience is by design and aligns with Chrome and other Chromium based browser policies. This is something they plan to investigate and try to improve but right now there is no ETA.
I will also let them know about your scenario.
Once more information is available we can follow up here. Thank you!

Kelly_Y - Any update?
Vote +1 - The Managed Favorites GPO should be additivity if there are multiple that applies to 1 person. Without this, this is a management nightmare. Trying to maintain the same shared links in multiple managed favorite GPO, then adding the additional favorites.
- I vote for this as well; it would be useful to have a "merge" mode available
- Hi!
Im in a similar situation albeit with Endpoint Manager/Intune. I want to deploy corporate wide managed bookmarks and add extra bookmarks to the same list only for a subset of users. I tried setting this up with one policy for all and a second policy cintaining only extra bookmarks in another policy hoping they would merge the policy specified bookmarks together. But instead I get a policy conflict. I coulf of course create a policy for each subset with the company wide bookmarks and the extra ones but that is a clunky way to get this done. if I need to change, add or remove a single bookmark for all, i need to adjust all policies. Not the most user friendly way. there should really be a better conflict solving mechanism here.
