Too bad this setting is not in the menu for edge on my surface pro. Would be great if MS could get this working. It is turned on for my W10 phone but without the ability to sync from my surface pro, it is useless on the phone.
Make sure you have the latest version of Windows 10 installed on all your devices. I have also seen problems when people have multiple Microsoft accounts (like Azure and Outlook) and they authenticate with different ones on different devices. I can confirm that this works across Windows 10 on a desktop (HP) and a laptop (Asus) and a Windows 10 Mobile (Lumia).

to synch just Edge, does each user have to use their Live account to log into Windows?
I don’t sync my phones and PCs. I won’t login to Microsoft. They try every way to get you to log in so they can push adverts.

the only problems ive had with all this syncing, is when im asked if i want to save my password for future sign in, and i say yes, thinking it will be unnecessary to remember it. then i dont use that account for awhile, or for whatever other reason the password nazis deem logical, they say they gotta make sure its me because its sensitive info… (i dont think it is, but whatevadafk) and i go to my password manager- then microsoft says its not the correct password? what the hay? are microsoft and google at war, or some sht? they turned off sync cuz i dont use my account 24/7? i got a life outside my computer, unlike some…. how do i get into an account when i know the right password but it says all the time that something went wrong? wasting hours of time on this bs…the account has an old phone number& i cant get the special fkn code from it to change to the new phone number to get the code to get into my account so it will start to sync cuz i gotta prove its me, but something always goes wrong on your side? that is just stupid. im not a doctor. i hve no patients with this dis-ease!!!
