MicrosoftNot signing into the browser? Why or why not, we would love to better understand!
MicrosoftHi MSDarwish, are you asking for a mode that has read-only access to you bookmarks and history, but not access to your passwords, current session info and extensions? Is this preventing you from signing in to the browser in general? Have you thought about manually creating a "guest" profile and copying your bookmarks to that account? Thanks - Elliot
Hi Elliot Kirk,
In general, I sign in with my personal account on my personal PC. But, when I use a friend's PC, I don't and so I have hard times to access my websites. This feature will help to have one's information on demand wherever he is.
As for what information to be synced though it's more helpful to sync passwords and current session tabs, I understand its security concerns, so the implementation is up to the Edge team.
Having a local backup of bookmarks won't really help in this use case as it won't be available anywhere other than the device where the backup is stored.
Maybe my suggestion is not closely related to the main topic or is a much-requested feature, but it may be helpful in some situations. I think it makes sense for 'Guest' to be able to login for a session and access their information. Also, an important point is the option to separate Edge's account from Windows's Emails & Accounts section.
Thanks
M Darwish
