Microsoft Edge: delete favorites - how it works

As in any other browser, you can delete favorites created in Microsoft Edge at any time. We will show you how this can be done individually or with the complete collection of favorites at once.

Delete individual favorites in Microsoft Edge

If you only want to delete certain favorites, proceed as follows:

1. Open the hub in Microsoft Edge and switch to favorites if necessary.
2. Right-click on the bookmark and select "Delete" from the context menu.

Delete all favorites in Microsoft Edge

If you want to delete all favorites in Microsoft Edge at once, the described procedure is very time-consuming. You can remove all favorites at once with one trick:

1. Open the Microsoft Edge settings and switch off the "Synchronize favorites and reading list" function.
2. Close Microsoft Edge.
3. Change to the directory "% LocalAppData% \ Packages \ Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe \ AC \ MicrosoftEdge \ User \ Default \ DataStore \ Data \ nouser1 \ 120712-0049 \ DBStore \". To do this, you can simply copy the path and paste it into the address bar of Windows Explorer without quotation marks.
4. Delete the "spartan.edb" file in the directory. This will delete all favorites in Microsoft Edge.
5. If you want, you can now re-enable the synchronization function in Microsoft Edge.
