    get syncing of favorites to work


    Has anyone been able to get the advertised syncing of favorites to work? I have Edge on two pc's and one ultra-light, and a windows phone. All are set to sync but no favorites have synced as yet. Latest fall update has been running for a week on all computers and phone has latest insider build of 10.

    :)

    Edge favorite syncing

    But you are wrong. When I first got my Surface, they synced from my phone to it. When I got my new Windows 10 laptop, they synced from my phone to the the laptop. Recently all syncing stopped. So don't tell me that it's not supposed to work. It is and
    it did. I am simply trying to get it to work again. And I'm trying to get it to sync the favorites I have favorites and not sync and delete my favorites

    Sync not working in Edge

    I heartily agree as Edge Sync has not worked for me ever and I've lost Favorites during several version Updates as a result if I didn't have latest backed up to HTML.

    To even get decent Favorites management has been an epic struggle. You can now at least back up to HTML hidden in the Setting to Import Favorites from another Browser (intuitive, huh?).

    I only use Edge for certain tasks, use Firefox and Chrome for others including syncing my Favorites reliably to other devices.

    Open Feedback Hub in Start Menu, search "Sync not working" to find previous issue posted to Vote up or create your own.
