Importing and Exporting Favourite Bookmarks – Summary

Most internet browsers allow you to export your favourite websites (bookmarks) to a file and import them into another browser or device. This makes it easy to back up your bookmarks or transfer them when switching browsers.


  • The process is similar across browsers like Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari.

  • JSRACS uses the edge browser and will  sync bookmarks automatically using your account JSRACS account.
