Chrome Bookmarks are the bread and butter of your little slice of the Internet. These are saved links of your favorite, go-to, or just important pieces of the Internet you would want to visit more often than not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that Google’s Chrome browser<\/a> and its variants such as the New Microsoft Edge, Vivaldi, and Opera make it easy to backup and restore your bookmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Back Up Your Chrome Bookmarks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To back up your bookmarks in the Google browser, click the Chrome menu icon at the top-right corner of your browser window and then go to Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager<\/strong>. The other option is by pressing Ctrl+Shift+O<\/strong> on your keyboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the Bookmarks Manager, click the menu icon on the top right and then select “Export Bookmarks<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the resulting Save As dialog, select the place you would like to save the HTML file which is the format Chrome saves bookmarks in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Restore Your Browser Bookmarks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Google’s web browser imports your exported bookmarks back into the browser using two separate options which basically end up doing the same thing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

. You can either follow the steps above describing the process for backing up your exported bookmarks up to where you have to select “Export Bookmarks<\/strong>” but instead you will select “Import Bookmarks<\/strong>“,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a shorter path that can be accessed by going to Bookmarks > Import Bookmarks and Settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the resulting Tool dialog, from the drop-down menu, choose “Bookmarks HTML File<\/strong>” and then click “Choose File<\/strong>“. From the file explorer that opens, navigate and select the HTML file you previously exported and then click “Open<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Toggle on “Show Bookmarks Bar<\/strong>” if you want your bookmarks to be shown in the bookmark bar then click “Done<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s a Wrap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You are now able to backup and restore your bookmarks when you need to at your own convenience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
