Most internet users find difficulty in using bookmarks while switching from one browser to another browser. Switching from one browser to another browser doesn’t automatically export and import bookmarks too from one browser to another.
Luckily Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome, all provide options to import and export bookmarks. So anyone can transfer all their bookmarks from one browser to another by performing a few simple steps.
Method 1. Export Bookmarks from Firefox and Import it into Google Chrome
We can easily export bookmarks from Firefox to Google Chrome by performing the following easy steps:

Method 2: Export Bookmarks from Internet Explorer and Import it into Google Chrome
