How to reset your chrome account and backup your bookmarks.

We have noticed a trend of ‘cached’ accounts in Chrome that are no longer associated with. This can cause issues with browser performance, loss of bookmarks, and prevent updates from occurring.

 

Backing up your bookmarks.

To back up bookmarks in Chrome, click the Chrome menu icon at the top-right corner of your browser window and then go to Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager.

You can also quickly open the Bookmark manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+O.

From the Bookmarks Manager, click the menu icon and then select “Export Bookmarks.”

Put your exported bookmarks in a safe place and then click “Save.”

Here is a link on how to import bookmarks in Edge Chromium Browser.
