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? poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
