To import Edge bookmarks to Chrome, you have two reliable options: import directly from Edge if it is installed on the same computer, or export your favorites as an HTML file and then import that file into Chrome. The HTML file method works universally, making it the safest choice regardless of your setup, especially if you are still deciding which browser is better for your daily workflow. If you later need to reverse the process, you can move favorites from Chrome to Edge using a similar import tool.
Export favorites from Microsoft Edge
First, open Microsoft Edge on your computer. Click the "Settings and more" icon (three horizontal dots) in the upper-right corner of the window. Navigate to "Favorites" in the menu that appears.
Inside the Favorites pane, click the "More options" icon (three dots) located above the list of your favorited websites. From the dropdown menu, select "Export favorites." A file-saving dialog will open.
Choose a location on your computer to save the HTML file and give it a memorable name, then click "Save." This file contains all your saved bookmarks and is ready to be moved into Chrome.
Import the bookmarks file into Google Chrome
Open Google Chrome. Click the "More" icon (three vertical dots) in the upper-right corner of Chrome. Select "Bookmarks" and then "Import Bookmarks and Settings."
From the dropdown menu that appears, select "Bookmarks HTML file." Click "Choose file," then navigate to the location where you saved the HTML file exported from Edge. Select the file and click "Open." Chrome will process the file and add your bookmarks.
Find your imported bookmarks in Chrome
If you haven't created any bookmarks in Chrome yet, the imported bookmarks will appear directly on the bookmarks bar. If you already have bookmarks in Chrome, the imported bookmarks will be placed in a new folder labeled "Imported" or "Other bookmarks" within your Chrome bookmarks. You can then drag them to your bookmarks bar or organize them into folders as you like.
