Right click on search results in edge://favorites to show the bookmark in its folder
DeletedHALLELUJAH I can finally show a search result in its folder. Took a long time. I didn't get it in time for my tasks but at least it's here now.
I hope you guys will also work on the performance of the React pages and on the scrollbars of those pages. Edge looks really bad when I scroll with my touchpad or finger.
note: gotta edit this as you can't do much in a quick replyedit: attached screenshot

"individually adding each tab in a window to a favorites folder?"
not quite. You don't have individually favourite each tab to a folder. You can do ctrl+shift+D to favourite all tabs in a window to a folder. You can also do this by right clicking in the tabstrip! 😄 It's really great as a tab hoarder lol.
"it sounds like doing a right click to search through the favorites isn't currently feasible"
I'm not sure if you misunderstood me.
Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about. If there were favourites with titles/links with "doggies", they'd show up as I searched for them. I don't have any in this screenshot as I have a lot of personal stuff in my own favourites so the screenshot is just to explain what I meant. In regular Chromium, I can right click on a result and click on "show in folder". This is important because when you search for things it's all a mess. Edge Chromium has it's own pages for settings, extensions, favourites, downloads and history and this wasn't implemented even though it's in Chromium/Chrome's bookmark page
note: each time i kept saying bookmark when i meant favourite so i just went and fixed it. also snip & sketch is rather annoying to use compared to snipping tool but the shortcut changed...
tbh what I wrote didn't make much sense to me but I hope it makes sense to you
pneenkoalabear Thanks for the clarification, I understand your feedback better now! (And thank you for the reminder about how to favorite an entire window's tabs, I'd forgotten about that nifty feature.)
So to confirm, you're looking for the same right click/search functionality as Chrome, correct?

- any update on this??? Each update I wonder if this has been added yet. Chrome/Chromium has this and so I don't know why Edgium doesn't.
perhaps you guys don't care about this because not many people care about this. i don't think this would ever reach one of the feedback collections, especially considering that this is old now.pneenkoalabear To confirm, I did send your feedback (and this thread) directly to our Collections team a few weeks ago. 🙂 However, I cannot currently speak to the team's exact plans going forward.

thanks for sending it! I have so many bookmarks so finding the folder which the bookmarks that I am looking for is a nightmare. I'm tempted to install Chrome Dev or something, import my bookmarks and then search my bookmarks there but I worry that it may mess something up.
- yup.
I should've included screenshots in my original post
