How to Recover Bookmarks in Chrome

To restore bookmarks in Chrome, follow the steps below.

1. Navigate to the Bookmarks Manager

Click the three-dot menu icon at the top right of the browser window. From the dropdown menu, hover over “Bookmarks and lists” to open a submenu. Select “Bookmark manager” from this submenu to access all your saved bookmarks.

2. Access the Import Bookmarks Option

In the Bookmark manager, click the three-dot menu icon at the top right corner of the manager window. 

From the dropdown menu, select “Import bookmarks.” This will open a file dialog box where you can choose the file to import your bookmarks from.

3. Select the Saved Bookmarks File

When the file dialog box appears, navigate to the location where you have saved your bookmarks HTML file. For example, if you saved the file on your Downloads, navigate to the Downloads folder. Select the HTML file (e.g., “Bookmarks_2024.html”) by clicking on it, then click “Open.” Chrome will begin the process of restoring your bookmarks from the selected HTML file. 

4. Verify Your Restored Bookmarks

Once the import process is complete, go to your bookmarks bar or bookmark manager to check if all your bookmarks have been restored.
