Windows 10: Sign In & Sync

Sovereign_Entity · Aug 7, 2021

Why does Edge keep signing me out of the browser? In the top right corner where my profile image is, it almost always says "Sign In" when I look at it. Why do I have to sign in repeatedly? My settings won't sync because I'm never signed in, I'm never signed in because it keeps signing me out."We can't sync to your account since we need to confirm that it's you. Please sign in again to verify your account."Why does it keep doing this?

You can now sign-in and sync favorites with Microsoft Edge on Linux

Users can now sign-in and sync their favorites with Microsoft Edge on Linux!

Microsoft Edge on Linux now includes the ability to login with your Microsoft account and sync your favorites, passwords, extensions, and more! As an insider, we would love your feedback on how well this experience works for you.

Enable Microsoft Sign-in and Sync

By default, sign in and sync is disabled, but enabling it is easy. Head on over edge://flags and search for and enable the ‘MSA sign in’ experiment.

Login with your Microsoft account and enable Sync

Now that things are enabled, you can login.

Select the profile image in the browser taskbar.

Select Sign in on the profile dialog.

Sign-in by entering your Microsoft account details.

Note: AAD accounts are not supported yet.

Select Sync when you are asked if you want to sync your account. This syncs your favorites, passwords, and other browsing data across the devices you use with this account.

Note: Sync will take a few seconds. If you click on your profile image, the sync status is displayed.

Now, we can see Sync is on and our favorites are available!

We really want to hear from you!

We are interested in hearing about your experience with the Microsoft account sign-in and sync feature. You can use Microsoft Edge’s Send Feedback tool by clicking on the profile image, or through the … menu under Help and feedback > Send feedback. Or you can leave a comment on this article.

What if this feature causes issues with my browser?

Given this feature is part of Edge’s DEV channel, we wanted to make sure you are well prepared for any potential issues. The mitigations listed below should be attempted from the top to bottom as they become increasingly destructive to your local data (i.e. favorites, passwords, extensions, etc.).

My browser is not behaving correctly since I logged in and enabled Sync.

Navigate to "Manage profile settings" (which will claim it is "Setting up sync" for your profile) and "Sign out" your account, but leave the favorites/history/etc.

Navigate to edge://flags/#edge-msa-sign-on-enabled and mark the "MSA sign in" flag as "Disabled". Restart as suggested.

My browser crashes when I launch it since I logged in and enabled Sync.

Launch edge with: --disable-features=msOneAuthEnableMSALSignInOnLinux

Navigate to edge://flags/#edge-msa-sign-on-enabled and mark the "MSA sign in" flag as "Disabled". Restart as suggested.

Navigate to "Manage profile settings" (which will claim it is "Setting up sync" for your profile) and "Sign out" your account, but leave the favorites/history/etc.

Disabling things as described above did not work for me.

Note: This option will delete all your favorites, passwords, extensions, etc.

Try deleting your Profile folder.

~/.config/microsoft-edge-dev/Profile*

Deleting my Profile folder did not work for me.

Note: This option will delete your local browser settings. The next time you launch the browser you will get the first run experience again.

Try deleting everything.

~/.config/microsoft-edge-dev/

~/.cache/Microsoft/

~/.cache/microsoft-edge-dev/

Things to do once connected new G-Sync monitor

I'm getting my G-Sync monitor today.

I think I have to take the following steps:

Connect 1440p G-sync monitor with DP cable

Connect second 1080p 60Hz monitor by HDMI

Startup PC

Reinstall display driver

Restart PC (I always do that after display driver install)

Activate G-Sync in NV control panel (I believe also V-Sync is auto on after that?)

Set my 1440p monitor from 1080p to 1440p

Calibrate my 1440p monitor

Also ingame, I should turn off V-Sync?
Are there any problems running a second 60Hz 1080p monitor?

Is there anything else I should do/know?
