So it has been a while since I posted this. Sync iCloud Bookmarks with Microsoft Edge - Apple Community
If your Microsoft account is not verified, you cannot use the Windows 10 Sync functionality. You can verify your account from this page. If you don’t see the “verify” option, continue to the steps below. Steps to Fix Sync is Not Available for Your Account Problem. To fix the sync not available problem, we need to make a single registry edit. If you want to sync your browsing data — password, bookmarks, and autofill data — with Microsoft Edge Chromium on the desktop, or with the rest of your mobile devices, the following steps should.
This used to work ok, but once Microsoft changed the Edge browser to Chrome-based this kinda stopped working. Furthermore it was rather cumbersome anyway.

Microsoft Edge not syncing I have Edge on both my Laptop and ios, signed in with same account but my favourites, reading lists etc aren't syncing as advertised. Ive updated windows and delete/reinstalled on ios but no change. Ios says its syncing but cant see where to check on laptop.
Found a new way of syncing iCloud Bookmarks with Microsoft Edge (Windows 10) favorites.
In order for this to work you need to have Google Chrome installed, and have iCloud for Windows set to sync with Google Chrome.
Now switch over to Microsoft Edge Browser (the new Chrome based version), make sure you have cleared and removed all bookmarks since I have not tested merging them in and what would happen, and then click this link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/icloud-bookmarks/fkepacicchenbjecpbpbclokcabebhah which brings up the iClouds Bookmarks by Apple for Chrome Extension in the Google App Store. Simply install it in Edge and activate it. - Done.
Within moments you should see all your iCloud bookmarks appear in Microsoft Edge.
It really would be super if Apple would include simply a setting in iCloud for Windows utilizing exactly this setting for MS Edge (chrome based) browser. Thanks.
Martin.
