Syncing when I didn't want it to happen

Hi,

Basically I had a graphic card and hard drive replaced on my pc. So everything was wiped. In the mean time I used my dad's laptop but when I've synced on there all his bookmarks/browsing history/passowords has synced. Now I have my PC back I need to delete all his stuff and just have mine. Is there a way to do this?

No there isn't a way to delete your father's data while leaving your data untouched on your PC after your PC was synchronized with data from both devices.

So there's no way to roll back sync to a certain date?

No there isn't. Sync keeps a merged data set without any backups.

Is there an update planned in future to solve that?
