I don't know if this has been posted yet, so if it has, just consider it a reminder:
I found a way
to easily sort the shortcuts in the favorites bar.
When you do it from the bar, by dragging & dropping, it's a real fight getting them placed where you want, specially getting the ones in the drop down onto the taskbar.
I found if I open up the Hamburger Hub(favorites, reading lists, history & downloads) and
(1.) pinning it open(upper right corner),
(2.) then open the
Favorites Bar folder,

(3.) and drag & drop them in there, they can be ordered smooth as silk.

If you find that they move around on their own after a while, try turning of the sync option, if it's on, or just keep adjusting until Windows "Learns" your preference after a few reboots/days(you will need a lot of patience

)
I want to thank Jeff ( @
BunnyJ ) and Donald ( @
hTconeM9user ) for constantly saying how well Edge works for them. Otherwise I would have given up on it a while ago. Now it's working well and I only have one gripe left.
Something about software I learned a while ago, and if you are a true PC Geek(and not just an every day user) you'll understand this comment:
If something works well for a few people but not for the rest, the rest have either software or hardware setup problems.
