You can back up your bookmarks/favorites in your internet browser and input them back into the browser if you are having any issues with the browser.

These settings are part of the "Windows Computer File and Settings Transfer Instructions."

Google Chrome
Mozilla Firefox
Internet Explorer

If you use Chrome with a Google account, your passwords and browser settings are saved within the account. You can simply install Chrome on the new computer and log in to your Google account to load the preferred browser settings from your old computer. The freshly loaded browser will prompt you to automatically import the settings and bookmarks. This feature makes Chrome have very low-maintenance requirements; its only caveat is that you must have a google account. You can manage these universal settings by accessing the menu in the upper right-hand corner of the Chrome browser. The three vertical dots open the menu with a list of options. Use this menu to open new windows or open an incognito window or to access and edit your bookmarks, extensions and browser settings.

All browsers allow you to export and import bookmarks from other browsers. Usually, it is an easy task using a simple menu system. Usually, the browser will prompt you to move them over from another installed browser.

However, there might be times when need to manually move them over to a different computer. Or, you might want to export a copy and save it for use at another time. Whatever the reason, here is how to manually import and export your bookmarks on Microsoft Edge.

With so many websites that people visit on a daily basis, chances are you will find some that are worth saving. Of course, keeping that many bookmarks are not a problem for modern browsers. However, what happens with the bookmarks if you reinstall the operating system on your computer or change out the old computer for a new one?



Worry not, for Google Chrome has a solution to preserve those precious bookmarks. Chrome has a built-in sync feature that saves all your bookmarks so that you can easily use them on any device using the Chrome browser. Sure, you and just about everyone else knows that, of course. However, problems can occur from time to time, manipulating, erasing, or preventing access to your synced bookmarks.

So, what can you do if you cannot access your synced bookmarks or lost them somehow? The answer is you save all your bookmarks by exporting them to an external storage device, such as a USB stick, SSD, HDD, or even a third-party cloud service. Whenever you want to recover your bookmarks, it is only a matter of importing the file to your Chrome browser.

This should automatically export all your Google Chrome bookmarks into an HTML file. If you encounter any issues, you can always manually export your Chrome bookmarks. Once you have them saved, you can easily import them to Safari, Firefox, Opera, or many other browsers. You can also import them into Chrome anytime on any device.

Now, your exported bookmarks are stored in the selected location with the name you chose. You can import them to any browser as needed, including Chrome on a PC, Mac, or Chromebook as previously instructed.

When you add a bookmark on one device, the bookmark will appear on all devices; more importantly, if you delete a bookmark on one device, all the devices that are synced via iCloud Safari bookmarks will also remove that bookmark.

And you might want to transfer more than just files from your old computer to your new one. This story includes methods for migrating files and apps, as well as browser bookmarks; one method can transfer some system settings as well.

You can connect an external hard drive, SD card, or thumb drive to your old PC, copy your files to it, then eject that device from the old computer, plug it into the new PC and copy the files to that new PC. The trick here (besides having enough storage capacity on your transfer drive) is to have your files and folders organized well enough so you get them all.

Local contacts and calendar entries likewise are very difficult to directly transfer from one computer to another, and it is best to make sure they are stored on a server, such as Exchange, Microsoft 365/Office 365, G Suite/Google Workspace/Gmail/Google Calendar, or iCloud, so they will sync to your contacts and calendar apps on your new PC. Your contacts and calendar apps may have an export feature that you can try. (You can often export individual contacts as a VCF file, for example.) These days, few contacts and calendar apps are not server-based, so chances are very high your contacts and calendar entries are stored somewhere they can be synced from into Outlook.

In Windows 10, you set up your backup in the Backup pane of the Update & Security section of Settings. You click Add a drive to select the external drive for backup and restore. Once you have selected a drive, you enable automatic backup by turning the Automatically back up my files switch to On.

Regardless of the transfer method you use, you almost certainly will have apps to reinstall, depending on what IT did for you in preparing your new computer. (PCmover Professional will transfer most apps; its documentation describes its limitations.)

Chrome, Firefox, and Edge all sync bookmarks across all your devices if they are all signed into the same account. Just enable syncing in each browser on each device you use. To be clear, you can sync only to the same browser, such as from Chrome to Chrome.

Bookmarks can be transferred from Firefox to Tor Browser. There are two ways to export and import bookmarks in Firefox: HTML file or JSON file.After exporting the data from the browser, follow the above step to import the bookmark file into your Tor Browser.

If you want to transfer bookmarks from one Google account to another, you need to first export your Chrome bookmarks and then import them to another Google account. It is very easy to do this. MiniTool Software will show you a complete guide in this post.

For some reason, you want to abandon your old Google account and start to use the new account. Some important information like bookmarks is saved to your old account. Is it possible to transfer bookmarks from one Google account to another?

In this era of rapid technological development, everything is possible. Chrome enables you to export bookmarks to a file in the html format. After that, you can import Chrome bookmarks to your new Google account using the html file.

Step 4: A window will pop up, on which you can select the imported bookmarks file to add it to your new Google account. Then, you can see the imported bookmarks in the Bookmark manager and the Bookmark bar.

You can see all the bookmarks from the old account are placed in one folder. If there are many folders in the imported folder, this may not suit your usage. So how can you separate these folders so that they can show up in the bookmarks bar at the top?

How to transfer Chrome bookmarks from one Google account to another? This post shows you a simple guide. As long as you follow the guide strictly, you can successfully do the job. Should you have any other related issues, you can let us know in the comments.

It doesn't seem possible by now. You can export all of your bookmarks then edit with a text editor and delete unwanted. If you temporarily seperate your bookmarks into groups before it's easier to do.

Move the folder you want to export to the left end of the bookmark bar. Export all bookmarks to file. Open the file in notepad. Find the bookmark that appears last in the folder you are trying to export. Delete everything after that bookmark. Save the file.

To save your Chrome bookmarks as a .doc file or .pdf file:In Chrome Export your bookmarks as an HTML file.In Firefox, open that HTML file that you just saved.CTRL 'A' to select all then open WORDIn a new document CTRL 'V' to paste. At the bottom of the text that you have just pasted is a small box with a clipboard inside and the word (CTRL).Click on the small downward pointing chevron and then select "Keep source formatting (K)Now save as a Word document or a PDF.
