Import Data from Google Chrome to the New Microsoft Edge
Currently, we don't support import from any dev/beta/canary versions of Chrome. We only allow import for the stable version of Chrome.
That said, please do keep sharing your feedback on the new Edge. We keep a close eye on user voices and if there are enough asks on this front, we would love to update our roadmap accordingly.
Hi, I'm using Chrome beta (version 74) and that Local State file is here in my system:
"C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome Beta\User Data"
as you can see it's only 100kb. I should mention that the original Edge also doesn't have Chrome as import browser, even when i was on stable Chrome channel.

- Yes. Please consider this feature. This will be very useful for us who use insider builds of chrome and edge quite often.
- Thanks, switched to Chrome stable and it worked.
there is just a problem, the bookmarks don't have their icons, no favicon was imported. any suggestions?- rishavsharan
We have implemented importing of favicons for favorites but it is not yet in the Dev build. I am expecting that this fix will find its way into Dev in the next few weeks.
rishavsharan can you explain how do we import favorites, bookmarks, password saved on chrome to edge beta silently.
I am able to import History from chrome to edge beta but not favorites, bookmarks and saved passwords from chrome to edge beta.
