    Can't find favorites.


    Hi,
    I am running Windows 10, version 2004, on a Dell desktop. I am not able to find my favorites. If I for example find a topic on say You Tube, and add it to favorites, and later decide to look at the topic, when I click the favorites button, only my
    "Favorite bar" comes up...not my favorites. I have tried going to settings without success. I even have "other favorites", but my main favorites are not available. At some point when I installed Bing search??, If I clicked on favorites, it gave me the option to add to favs. or fav. bar. that option is no longer available, so I don't know where favorites are?? Just to let you know, I am not tech savvy.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Jerry

    Hi,

    To assist you further, let me ask.


    • Are you referring to Microsoft Edge Browser/internet Explorer favorite?
    The favorite that you are referring is Edge or Internet Explorer browser, I would suggest to clear cookies and history or right-click on the list which you want to remove by selecting delete.

    Follow the steps on how to clear cookies.

    To view your browsing history, select Hub >
    History. To delete it, select Clear all history, choose the types of data or files that you want to remove from your PC, then select
    Clear.

    Note: applicable to Edge browser.

    For internet Explorer follow the steps below.


    • Open Internet Explorer, Click on the favorite menu.

    • Choose “Organize favorite”, click on favorite you wish to delete.

    • Click on delete which can found below.

    Move Favorites icon to desktop win-10

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows.

    • How are you trying to add the favorites to desktop?
    I suggest you to try the below steps to save the favorites on desktop and check if it helps.

    • Open the Internet Explorer and minimize the screen.
    • Then go to the favorites tab and then drag any favorites that you have saved to the desktop.
    • Once you get the favorites items \ folders then you can open the favorites and check if it is opening.
    Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.
