    Does this new beta Edge access favorities from the Users-username-Favorites folder like IE11 did?

    Only the Favorites Bar, I think.

    I think you have to import them manually...

    I have opened IE once in maybe 3 years Happy with my new Edge. Once again, if they can stop a couple issues with white flashes, it will be perfect.

    Here is a good one.
    Try selecting all the IE favorites in C:\Users\UserName\Favorites. and just right clicking, then check out this nice pop up dialog:

    I know, MS can't get out of it's own way sometimes. I know it is old school but the fav folder just makes the organizing so much easier for hordes of links.

    Richard, it might be nice to use, but it's just a left over from a time before all that stuff could be sync'd

    Another little thing:
    Double clicking a Favorite within the Favorites Manager does not open in a new foreground tab.

    (I wish they would just call it Bookmarks/Bookmark Manager, keep an industry standard!)
