Hello everyone,

I know that my post was not clear at first, but I will try to explain my situation briefly.
To be clear and brief, I decided to change my web browser, so I'm switching from Google Chrome to Opera GX, so nothing extraordinary.

Then, after downloading "Opera GX," the browser prompted me to log into my mail account (i.e., Gmail)... After that, I checked that the bookmarks were indeed in the "favorites" of Opera...

That's when I realized that all my bookmarks (as well as saved passwords...) were missing; I only recovered six bookmarks out of all those that were on Google Chrome... and yet I checked the data I wanted to recover from Chrome in Opera. So I really don't know what to do...

Additionally, I should add that I no longer have any bookmarks in Google Chrome either! So I can only continue on this new browser (Opera).

Thank you very much!
I look forward to your answers quickly! ;) Have a great day everyone!

SOowZz

    Hello,

    Uninstall Opera GX using Revo for example.

    Then reinstall Opera GX

    Do not sign in to your Google account (Gmail).

    Then go to the Menu (Red button located at the top left) then Bookmarks.
    --►Import bookmarks and settings
    Select the Chrome browser.


    Still try the manual method, it will avoid uninstalling Opera GX.

    See you later
