Sync Your Tampermonkey Userscripts to iCloud on macOS

Steps to Enable iCloud Sync for Tampermonkey

1. Quit Microsoft Edge completely

Make sure Edge is not running before making changes.

2. Move Tampermonkey’s storage to iCloud Drive

Tampermonkey’s Edge extension ID is:

iikmkjmpaadaobahmlepeloendndfphd

In Terminal, run:

mv ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft\ Edge/Default/Extensions/iikmkjmpaadaobahmlepeloendndfphd ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Tampermonkey

This moves Tampermonkey’s data into iCloud Drive.

3. Create a symbolic link back

Now link the iCloud folder back to Edge’s extension path:

ln -s ~/Library/Mobile\ Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Tampermonkey ~/Library/Application\ Support/Microsoft\ Edge/Default/Extensions/iikmkjmpaadaobahmlepeloendndfphd

4. Repeat on your other Mac

Perform the same symlink step on your second Mac. Once done, any change to your Tampermonkey scripts will automatically sync across devices via iCloud.

 Notes and Warnings

• Do not run Edge on both Macs at the exact same time while editing scripts, as iCloud may produce sync conflicts.
• If you encounter errors, simply restore the backup by copying the folder back into Edge’s extension directory.
