Hi, can you Export to HTML in Chrome - I don't know because I uninstalled it years ago!

If so, export them and save to somewhere convenient on your PC.

Now in Firefox, open bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import and Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML, and navigate to where you saved the file. More: Import data from another browser.

Thanks! This one worked. I noticed on the Chrome bookmark bar there is an option to export as html. Thanks again
