Hello,
I have a site where I have two accounts. I used to be able to have one of them logged in with Edge and one with Chrome, then by running the right browser, I could be logged in with the right profile.
Now, Edge seems to have started copying the login across from Chrome, i.e. I can't separate them. Logging in on Chrome logs in with the same credentials on Edge which isn't what I want.
How do I turn this off so that each browser can log in with different credentials and stay logged in with those credentials? I've found lots of stuff about syncing my MS account across devices, but this is on one single device and two browsers that I want to be completely unrelated.
Thanks.

Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
If you haven't found the solution, here it is:
edge://settings/profiles/importBrowsingData/importOnLaunch
Just turn off the feature.
It sounds bizarre, but it is real. It is happening to me too. I have a platform that I am building, but I also have a user account. Sometimes I need to be logged into two account, admin and user at the same time. Edge copies my Chrome credentials and logs me as an admin :-(
This is a very simple problem to replicate. I have a very simple website that sets Session variables (i.e. User Full Name, User Birth date, etc.) when a user logs in, Before I could log into the same web app being two different users at the same time. To do this, you had to use a different browser (i.e. Edge and Chrome). However, since Edge Chromium (i believe) the defaults are to share Session state between browsers, and that results in the problem describe earlier (if I log in as Jack in the Chrome Browser, and then log in as Jill in the Edge browser, when I return to Chrome I now am Jill in Chrome as well).
What appears to have solved it for me was turning off "Import browser data on each launch" in the edge://settings/profiles section.
Looks like this hasn't been fixed. Guess I'm not using edge anymore.
Ha, worked for me
