Favorites

Greetings All-
How does one move saved Windows10/Edge Favorites from a file on the C drive back into Edge?
Only options are "Import from Internet Explorer or Chrome". Imported old Windows 7 favorites into Edge but can't do the saved Edge favorites.

Thank you. Much appreciated.

It all started with a "free" Ad blocker that installed the "Professional" paid version of itself wo permission. After 2 weeks it became inactive and demanded payment. Could not uninstall it and the free version was dead too. I finally was able to uninstall it, but somehow my Edge favorites were lost.

The moral of this story is that the only "free" cheese is in a mouse trap!

Tried your suggestion. However, there is no "import from another browser" option. Only Internet Explorer or Chrome.

What version of edge do you have? older version doesn't have the import from file option but the latest does, at least the one i'm in Microsoft Edge 40.15063.0.0 has import from file.

Workaround for your version would be to import the bookmarks into internet explorer first, and then have edge import it from internet explorer
