Nice story but that is all it is. Does not work on corporate / work O365 Accounts. Cannot comment on personal accounts. I can sign in using my work account clicking the button web actvities but if you then go to the extension in settings it shows not signed in. Trying there directly only allows personal accounts.
If you go to timeline there is yet another button to sign into your Microsoft account but that just signs you in to personal accounts once again and nothing you browse to ever shows up in the timeline.
Are you sure you are talking about Windows 10 Timeline/Activities? My history does sync but not in task view/timeline.
