Edge favourites sync from IE

[petben]

I have enabled the Keep favorites in sync between Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge policy. I’ve checked the reg key is there indicating this is enabled.

 

It’s not working though, favourites are in IE but opening edge I just get the ‘import favs’ box which is greyed out as it controlled by the organisation.

 

Is there more to it? What could block? Firewall and uac off.

Do you have the following policy enabled?

 

 

Firewall and uac off.

Shouldn't these be on?

I’ve not got that policy, I’ll install the 1803 adm tomorrow but it will be not configured by default. Anything else you can think of?

 

Is there a different method to dictating user the location of users favourites in edge?

Thanks

I am still having issues with this IE Favorites sync, the policy is applied:

 

Keep favorites in sync between Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge - Enabled

Prevent changes to Favorites on Microsoft Edge - Disabled

 

The corresponding REG keys are present and being applied.

 

I open IE and some favorites are there (from the users redirected folder), open Edge and favorites are not there, the grey box labelled 'Import Favorites' is there.

 

any ideas?

Thanks

Exactly the same issue here on Edu 1803. Reg entry is in place after enabling the policy but nothing syncs either way. I've tried it as a user policy and computer policy - no change.

 

Anyone had any joy with this?
