Chosen solution

Firefox will import Chrome bookmarks, but evidently not from the Comodo browser.

Please check with Comodo browser support and ask them how to export your bookmarks in bookmarks.html format, which every browser I have ever seen has used to import bookmarks / favorites that were exported from a different brand browser - and to export same.

The bookmarks.html format is / was the unofficial standard for importing and exporting from and to web browsers for many years, but not every browser still supports that "standard".

I don;t use Chrome and I believe Opera (based upon WebKit, like Chrome) doesn't appear to support the bookmarks.html format for exporting bookmarks any longer - or I haven't looked for that feature in Opera hard enough.

Thanks, I managed it to get my bookmarks as html imported. However, I would like to show my bookmark folders in the bar instead of from google chrome only. How can I achieve that?
