Settings are not preserved in university computers #88

First of all... thanks for the wonderful extension. For me, it has replaced Edge's mini menu.

I've installed the extension on MS Edge when I'm using university computers. Each time, I'm using a different computer and all my settings (for Windows and different apps) are preserved and as an example, I don't need to install edge extensions each time. My issue with selecton is that I've customised it to be minimal (see the image below) and for some reason, the extension does not remember this when I log on to a new computer. To give more context, my settings on other edge extensions are preserved.

I've tested to see if I can change the config.js file (located in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Extensions\<extension_id>\3.9.6_0\src\data) manually, but that corrupted the extension and I had to re-install it.

So, my current solution is to import the selecton-settings.json file each time I log in to a computer.

Would you please advise what I can do to automate the process?

    Thanks for your kind words!

    What you you need for this is the cloud settings synchronization, which is not yet implemented in this extension, but is planned to be added some time in the future.
