OT: restoring Chrome bookmarks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



For complicated reasons involving changing browsers, my set of Chrome
bookmarks was messed up. Luckily I have a backup of the correct set,
but when I shut down Chrome and do:

$ cp .config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks.bak .config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks

on starting up Chrome it briefly shows the correct bookmarks but within
a couple of seconds the old (bad) set is restored. This is reflected in
the respective files (the .bak is the good set):

$ ls -l .config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks*
-rw-------. 1 poc poc 2216739 Sep 15 15:51 .config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks
-rw-rw-rw-. 1 poc poc  104157 Sep 15 15:51 .config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks.bak

This happens repeatedly, even when I've turned off all extensions and
set the startup preference to not open existing pages. It still manages
to find this bad data somewhere.

I'm using google-chrome-stable-61.0.3163.91-1.x86_64

Any thoughts?
