The new Chromium-based Edge is truly cross-platform and is available on Windows 10, 8, 7, macOS, Android, and iOS, with a Linux version coming in the future. Whatever the reason, now you know how to manage multiple profiles. Or, you can even add a third profile that has your work bookmarks and other data only. Maybe you want a local profile that doesn’t sync data around. Then it’s up to you whether you want to sync that data or not. Or, you can use the second profile of your own for perhaps personal financial stuff only. Suppose you have a shared computer in your home and want each person to have their own synced data, for example. There are many instances where you can use a second or multiple profiles in the new Edge. You will have a second screen that pops up asking to verify the removal – click the Remove profile button. Now click the Options button (three dots) and select Remove from the menu. In this example, I am getting rid of “Profile 2”. Then switch to the profile you want to delete. Then choose Manage profile settings from the drop-down. To do that, click on the current profile icon in the upper right corner of the screen. If you no longer need a profile, you can get rid of it. Here you can also change other sync settings like you can for your main profile, like passwords, payment info…etc. If the other profile is connected to your Microsoft account, it will use that icon. There you can change the name of the profile as well as choose a new avatar. Then click the Options button (three dots) next to the Sign in button and choose Edit. To get started, click the profile icon in the upper right corner of the screen and select Manage profile settings from the menu. Once you have added a user profile(s), there is some management you can do.
