Microsoft Edge Profile Import / Restore Restores the user's Microsoft Edge profile from the user's S3-backed Restic repository edge:profile:restore /cli/commands/edge-profile-restore https://github.com/megabyte-labs/install.doctor/blob/master/home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml#L168 home/dot_config/task/Taskfile.yml

This command imports / restores the Microsoft Edge profile from the S3 Restic repository, if it exists. In order to use this command for the first time, you should initialize Microsoft Edge by opening the application. You should also customize the application by applying your preferred settings (i.e. customize it how you want it to open in the future). Then, after making any changes you wish to be saved, you can backup the Microsoft Edge profile to the user's S3 bucket by running the edge:profile:backup task. After this is done, you can restore the application settings by running this command (i.e. edge:profile:restore).

The Microsoft Edge backup is encrypted with the same key that Chezmoi uses (stored in ~/.config/age/chezmoi.txt, by default). Since the backup leverages Restic, you can leverage all the functionality that Restic offers if something goes awry.
