How to recover my missing favorites?

Copper Contributor

When I try to sort my bookmarks, I use search and ctrl+x, Edge crashed... When I launched Edge again, almost every item is missing, and synced...

I only have a backup a year ago, please help, is there any way to recover from cloud?

You may be able to restore them from a local backup. If you go to %localappdata%\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default and look for a Bookmarks.bak or Bookmarks.msbak file, it may contain your data from before the crash. If so, replacing the existing Bookmarks file with one of the backups sounds like the way to go.
