Windows 10: Window Update deleting favorites

Windows updated on my laptop recently and I lost all my favorites in Edge Windows 10. I have tried to search the community for how to restore them but I can only find how to restored from IE - which brought over only two old favorites. I need to find a way to get my favorites back from the version of windows that was on the laptop before the update from earlier today was applied. Much of the files I have on the desktop are also missing.

Hi,

To assist you further, let me ask.

  Are you referring to Microsoft Edge Browser/internet Explorer favorite?

Follow the steps on how to clear cookies.

Clear.
