    Updated Edge to Version 105.0.1343.50 in hopes it'd be fixed.

    No LUCK. SSDD.

    I would like for Microsoft and EdgeDev team to know that this has been broken for about 1.5-2 months now. It is September 20, 2022, and on a brand-new MacBook Pro I was unable to import a .csv of passwords from any browser.

    Again, today, I cleared and made a clean sync install of Edge Canary and Stable on my Windows PC -- the only passwords that sync are the ones that I manually add. I cannot import a .CSV as I was once able to do.

    I use both Edge and Chrome, but I use Google's password manager as my primary storage for that. From time to time, I erase ALL Edge passwords, and re-import an updated list from Chrome.

    I have used both the export in passwords.google.com and from the internal Chrome settings menu.

    Here's The New Problem: The Android version of Edge grays out .csv files when I go to attempt an import that way!

    I attempted several things at once and had success at an import on Android:

    1. renamed my "Google Passwords.csv" default name that Google provides to "Googlepasswords.csv" with no spaces.
    2. Turned "Autofill for other Apps" is now turned on for Edge Canary on Android (temporarily)
    3. Imported from local storage, and not Google Drive (but I had tried both previously)

    It now imported.

    And it takes a bit to fully Sync to desktop, also, I have a LOT of passwords so it runs sluggish at first.
