This wikiHow teaches you how to export Google Chrome bookmarks as a file on both Windows and Mac systems. After exporting your bookmark list to a file, you can use that file to import it into another browser. However, keep in mind that Chrome bookmarks cannot be exported using the mobile app.
Steps
Step 1. Launch Google Chrome by clicking the icon
It is characterized by a red, yellow and green circle with a blue sphere in the center.
Step 2. Press the ⋮ button
It is located in the upper right corner of the program window. A drop-down menu will appear.
Step 3. Choose the Favorites option
It is visible at the top of the drop-down menu that appeared. A new submenu will appear.
Step 4. Choose the Manage Favorites item
It is located at the top of the last menu that appeared. The page for managing the entire list of Chrome bookmarks will be displayed.
Step 5. Enter the "Organize" menu
Push the button ⋮ located in the upper right corner of the "Favorites" tab. A small drop-down menu will appear.
Make sure you don't click the icon ⋮ ("Other actions") located on the right of each element that makes up the list of favorites visible in the main pane of the "Favorites" tab. Do not even select the "Customize and control Google Chrome" button, characterized by the same icon and located in the upper right corner of the browser window, otherwise a different menu will be displayed than the one you will need to use.
Step 6. Choose the Export Favorites option
It is one of the items listed in the drop-down menu that appeared. The "File Explorer" (on Windows) or "Finder" (on Mac) window will appear.
If the option Export favorites is not visible, it means that you have clicked the icon ⋮ wrong.
Step 7. Name the file
Type the name you want to assign to the file in the "File name" or "Name" text field.
Step 8. Select the destination folder
Use the left sidebar of the dialog box that appeared to select the directory where you want the favorites list to be stored (for example the folder Desktop).
Step 9. Press the Save button
It is located in the lower right part of the dialog box.
