How to import bookmarks
Table of contents:
Maybe with the arrival of the new Edge, you have chosen to make the leap to the new browser. If this is your case and you don't know how you can import your bookmarks, logins and so on, don't worry. It is a very easy process to carry out, so that we will have all the information we already had stored in the browser we were using.
Without having to use third-party applications, just through the options offered by Edge, we can import bookmarks, browsing history, passwords, credit card information credit, cookies… and you can import this data from Chrome, from Firefox or from another browser.These are the steps you must follow.
Import from Chrome, Firefox, Safari…
"If you are using Firefox, Chrome or another browser and you start using Edge and you want to have all the data you generated, just You must navigate through the Configuration options>" "
Just click on the Edge menu using the three dots in the upper right area. We will access the Settings” menu and there we must look at the Profiles tab that appears in the area left side."
When entering Profiles we must select Import favorites from another browser , where when clicked, Edge offers a dropdown with different compatible browsers.In my case it appears Chrome, Firefox (the normal version and Nightly), Safari and even through an HTML file. In the case of Firefox, it can be imported but with limitations."
We can also choose the profile to which to import that information, something useful especially if the computer is shared with other users and each one has a profile enabled.
"Among the information that we can import into Edge, there are differences depending on the origin of the data that we are going to import In the case of Chrome as a source we can select between Favorites or bookmarks, Saved passwords, Personal information, Payment information, Browsing history, Configuration, Open tabs>"
If we use Firefox as a source of the data, we have the option to choose between Favorites or bookmarks, Personal information>"
With this system you can count on Edge with all the information (or almost all, depending on the browser) that you had generated using other alternatives such as Chrome, Firefox or Safari and in this way save valuable time by avoiding manual data entry
