    Copy Edge and Chrome Favorites / Bookmarks from Damaged Drive


    Had a thread I started in the Performance & Maintenance sub-forum about a REALLY slow Toshiba laptop. I eventually put in a new drive and re-installed W10. Windows 10 Version 1909, Build 18363.418.

    I put the old, slightly damaged drive in a caddy and was easily able to copy the pictures, documents and music from the old drive to a thumb drive. My friend used Chrome and Edge as browsers, and I can find no tutorial on accessing those favorites from that old drive - lots of info on exporting them from a WORKING computer, but how do I get them off this drive sitting in a caddy, plugged into this PC and accessible only as an F: drive?

    :)
