14 DAY TRIAL // Syncing Collections in Microsoft Edge is a thing that many hardcore users do, pretty much because it’s the easiest way to have the same Collections roam across devices.
It’s easy to see how this comes in handy, as having Microsoft Edge installed on several devices with the same account allows you to sync data.
However, Microsoft has recently confirmed in a post on reddit that syncing Collections in Microsoft Edge is broken down, with a fix already in the works.
“It appears a few of you have mentioned that you are having issues with your Collections being stuck on Sync. I know this is frustrating, but the good news is our team is zoned in and investigating. The team was able to jump in and review diagnostics submitted by users to review!” a Microsoft Edge Community Manager explained in a post.
At this point, Microsoft says it is investigating two different bugs related to Sync and Collections, with the desktop patch expected to be part of Microsoft Edge 104.
- #1 - Collection Sync button unable to enable/disable when feature flag is ON; ETA fix: Aiming for next Android release
- #2 - Desktop/mobile prism sync issues; Desktop and mobile have different flight; ETA fix: Aiming for 8/8 104 release
In other words, the fix will go live for Microsoft Edge on the desktop next month, so we’re only a few weeks away from the moment it would go live.
Microsoft Edge is continuously evolving, and Microsoft’s very committed to improving the browser in the long term, not just on Windows but also on the other platforms. The company is in permanent contact to users, and this helps it further refine the browser in a way that makes more sense in the long term, therefore making sure it delivers exactly the experience users expect in the first place.
