Nope... as of March 2023, editing the registry with the above instructions does not work. There is no "Edge" sub folder, at least in Win10 there isn't.

Right now (Feb 2023) the only way to stop syncing is to create new key in registry.
1. Make sure that Edge is closed.
2. Open regedit from "Run command"
3. Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge
4. Add new value SyncDisabled. It has to be DWORD (32-bit) Value
5. After adding this value set it to 1.
(after restart of Edge you'll see "Your organization has turned off sync for this device.")
1. P R O F I T
