    How to Sync favorites in Edge ? must have tried almost everything !


    I tried everything I can think off on my Surface and laptop, but the Edge favorites do not sync.

    - log out and in to my Microsoft account
    - switch sync off and on
    - switch all sync choices off and on
    - create new favorites
    - create favorites sub folder

    Still no syncing for the last month or so.

    Now what ?

    :)

    Sync Favorites in Edge is not working

    Hi Clark,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    I would suggest you to refer to the below Microsoft help article on how to sync favorites in Microsoft Edge.

    You can sync between devices, but not between IE and Edge.

    Let us know if you need further assistance and we’ll be more than happy to help you.

    Have a great day.

    Microsoft Edge Favorites Not Syncing

    OK. I've made some progress here. I had to uninstall edge and reinstall it as described at

    http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-reinstall-microsoft-edge-in-windows-10/    .

    A few things that I had to do different...

    • I changed my standard user account to an admin account before I did this. I changed it back when done.
    • I uninstalled all extensions before I did this. I reinstalled them when done.
    • Step 6: I booted into safe mode before I did this so that I could delete the Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe folder.

    I did this to both computers. I then imported the favorites from IE11. After the computers synced then some favorites went away. I then deleted all favorites and them both Edge browsers sync between computers. I then reimported the favorites, added some
    to the favorites bar, including folders, and all has synced now.

    So far so good.

    Mike
