Edge dev favorites folder location
- Hi,
here is the location where all of your favorites are saved in:
"C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Bookmarks"
these 2 files:
Bookmarks
And
Bookmarks.bak (back up file for Bookmarks)
are the files you're looking for.
I tried to share a full-screen capture (image) to show that I am in the correct location to access the bookmarks file, (C:\Users\USERNAME (here it would read "the7t")\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\Bookmarks) but it (the file) does not appear there, (and the image didn't/won't upload... so not even this website is working as it should) and I have my PC set to show all hidden files folders, and drives.
I've been able to copy the bookmarks and the backup bookmarks files from "CCleaner" browser (which is also Chromium based) to "Opera" and wanted to do the same with "Edge Dev", but I can't because the file location is not the same.
- Spoiler

Just go to Favorites > Select (...) button > Export favorites
You can then import it in any other browser
