Import Favorites Into Microsoft Edge

If you’re trying out the Microsoft Edge browser, you’ll want to know how to import all of your bookmarks and favorites from other browsers. We’ll start by opening Edge and then click on the three-dot menu icon on the upper-right side. Choose Settings from the drop-down menu.

Then click the star to see your Favorites. The imported favorites or bookmarks will be in a file called Imported from with the name of the browser.

  1. It is a stupid way to import Favorites. I struggled with this when my wife got a new computer and we tried to duplicate Favorites on Edge from IE. Wouldn’t work. Why not make the “old” Favorites the “new” Favorites instead of hiding them in a sub-folder? Transferring Contacts is impossible from IE to Edge.

  2. Very good, Edge is a problem for every body, seems like a advertising page to me. Please show us the easy way to make google the home page in Edge Thanks alan
