How to copy all bookmarks in Yandex browser. We save Yandex browser bookmarks to a backup copy. How to transfer bookmarks from Yandex browser to another computer

I would like to describe the useful experience of working with Yandex Browser. Until recently, I used the Chromium browser assembly from the Yandex company, that is, Yandex.Browser. This was due to the fact that I wanted to synchronize contacts not with Google accounts in Chrome, but with Yandex accounts, since I use it more often.

Remark: Next, I will talk about passwords that are stored in the browser. Yes, I am aware of information security matters. Yes, I know about password encryption systems. And yes, I only store passwords in the browser that are not particularly valuable and do not pose a danger if they are lost.

Here I decided to save the passwords in a separate file. But I didn't find such a function at all. I wrote to Yandex support and received an answer that such a function is not available in the browser and there is no way to export the password. It wouldn't be so bad if the saved passwords in the browser could be transferred to another browser. But neither Chrome nor Mozilla see Yandex.Browser and do not consider it a browser at all! It turns out that you can only use passwords through Ya.Browser, you can synchronize passwords between Ya.Browsers on different computers, but you cannot save them anywhere or transfer them en masse. At this point, I decided to part with this browser. But what to do with passwords? Everything turned out to be very simple.

Solution!

By the address C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Yandex\YandexBrowser\User Data\Default file is located Login Data. This file contains all passwords in the form of a sqlite database. Passwords are stored in clear text in a BLOB and can be easily read by the Google Chrome browser if you copy this file to the Chrome folder: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default.

Be careful! This copying will destroy your passwords in Chrome, replacing them with browser ones!

This is how I found a solution to the problem. Well, I don’t work with Ya Browser anymore :)

By the way!

I can recommend a good and reliable hosting for your projects with adequate technical support. I have been keeping my projects and clients’ projects there since 2011. For projects slightly larger than a personal page, I advise you to choose not the cheapest tariff, but the next one after it.

When installing Yandex Browser, your settings will be automatically transferred from the browser that was previously set as the default. The composition of the imported data depends on the browser from which it is downloaded.

Note. If a master password is set in the Mozilla Firefox browser, Yandex Browser will not be able to import saved passwords for sites. Passwords from Mozilla Firefox for Mac OS users are also not imported.

Immediately after installing the browser

When you launch Yandex Browser for the first time, the Data Transfer tab opens, where you can cancel automatically imported settings from the default browser:

  1. Make sure your default browser is listed in the drop-down list.
  2. Click the Don't Transfer button.
If you closed the "Data Transfer" tab
  1. Open the page browser://activation/ in your browser.
  2. In the drop-down list, select the browser from which the settings were automatically imported.
  3. Click the Don't Transfer button.
  4. To confirm canceling the import of settings, in the Now the browser will restart pop-up window, click Continue.

After installing Yandex Browser, you can import the settings yourself. For example, transfer settings from a browser that is not designated as the default browser, or transfer only part of the settings.

To transfer settings:

  1. Tap → Settings.
  2. In the User Profiles section, click the Import bookmarks and settings button.
  3. In the Transfer Bookmarks and Settings window, select the browser from which you want to download settings and components to import.
  4. Click the Transfer button.

How to transfer bookmarks and other personal data from one browser to another on the same computer - Find out here 48

The function of importing bookmarks from one browser to another can be useful to the user. For example, you constantly use one browser and you already have a large collection of bookmarks in it, but you decide to switch to another web browser, what should you do with your bookmarks in this case, should you transfer them manually? In this case, you can import bookmarks and other personal data from one browser to another automatically, using special browser functions.

Just keep in mind that this does not mean saving bookmarks in a separate file in order to restore them later, but copying them from one browser to another. I will give a few examples of how to transfer bookmarks, history and other data in the most popular browsers.

In Chrome, each settings page has its own URL, which is convenient because you can quickly go to the page you need.

To open the page for copying bookmarks, follow the link:

chrome://settings/importData/

You will immediately see a page where you can select the settings you want to copy and the source from which you want to copy them. But, if you haven’t saved this address or you don’t remember it, then the easiest way is to open the import window using the program menu.

For example, open the menu and follow the path:

Bookmarks – Import bookmarks and settings

You can also find a button to open the import of bookmarks in the browser settings.

Go to settings and in the “Users” section, click on the “Import bookmarks and settings” button.

In the settings import window, you need to select the source from which you will transfer bookmarks to Chrome and mark other elements that you want to copy. When you select the elements you need, click on the “Import” button and all data from the selected browser will be copied to Chrome.

Please note that in Chrome you can only transfer settings from Mozilla Firefox, IE and from an html file.

To import settings into Mozilla Firefox, you need to press the Alt key and in the program menu that opens, follow the path:

Bookmarks – Show all bookmarks

Or press the key combination Ctrl+Shift+B.

Then, in the “Library” window, select the “Import and backups” menu and in it select the “Import data from another browser” item.

In a new window called “Import Wizard”, you need to select the browser whose settings you want to transfer and click the “Next” button.

In the next window you need to indicate which objects you will copy from another browser and click the “Next” button. After this, the data you selected will be copied to Mozilla. You can transfer settings from IE, Chrome, Chromium, Safari to red fox.

Opera runs on the same engine as Chrome, which means that almost all of the program's settings can be accessed using the address bar.

You can open the import window in Opera by entering in the address bar:

opera://settings/importData

Or using the browser menu.

Other tools – Import bookmarks and settings

You can also open the import window in the program settings, press the key combination Alt+P and open the settings window.

In settings, open the “Browser” tab and go to the “Default browser” section. Here, click the “Import bookmarks and settings” button.

Then specify the copy source and check the items you want to copy. To perform the operation, click on the “Import” button. You can copy bookmarks from Mozilla Firefox, Chrome, IE and from an html file to Opera.

In Yandex browser you can also open the import window using the address bar; to do this, specify the url:

browser://settings/importData

Or using the browser menu.

Open the menu and follow the path:

Bookmarks – Import bookmarks

You can also open the data import window in your browser settings. Go to settings and in the “User Profiles” section, click the “Import bookmarks and settings” button.

Then, in the “Transfer bookmarks and settings” window, you need to indicate the source of copying and note what data you want to transfer to the Yandex browser. You can transfer data to Yandex browser from Mozilla Firefox, IE, Opera, Google Chrome browsers and from an html file.

As you may have noticed, each web browser can only copy data from some browsers, and the one you need may not be on this list. In this case, you need to copy your bookmarks first to an html file, and then select it as the source for transferring data. In addition to the method indicated in the article, you can also copy bookmarks by synchronizing browsers that are installed on different computers. If you have another working method for importing bookmarks, share it in the comments to this article.

Sincerely, Yuri Khripachev.

Today you can reinstall the Yandex browser, saving your bookmarks, using three methods: by exporting bookmarks to a file, through the synchronization function, or by dragging and dropping the file. They will be discussed in more detail below.

Method 1: Export and import bookmarks

This method is notable in that you can save bookmarks to a file, and then use it not only for reinstalled Yandex, but also for any other web browser available on the system.

  1. Before you remove Yandex.Browser, you should export your bookmarks. To do this, open the menu and go to the section "Bookmarks" > "Bookmark Manager". The same window opens with a keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + O.
  2. In the right area, find the button with three dots and click on it to expand the submenu, and then click on the button "Export bookmarks to HTML file".
  3. In the Explorer that opens, you should specify the final location for the file with your bookmarks.
  4. From now on, you can begin reinstalling Yandex, which begins with uninstalling it. We talked about this in another article.

  7. Windows Explorer will be displayed, in which this time you will need to select the previously saved file with bookmarks, after which they will be added to the browser.

Method 2: Setting up synchronization

Like many other web browsers, Yandex has a synchronization function that allows you to store its basic data on Yandex servers. This useful function will help you save not only bookmarks after reinstallation, but also logins, passwords, browsing history, settings and other important information. We have already looked at how to carry out the first synchronization in Yandex.Browser, and you can find this information in the material at the link below.

The sequence of actions is clear: you activate the synchronization function, remove the browser, install it again and enable synchronization again. You will find links to articles on how to properly remove and install Yandex in the previous method.

Method 3: Transferring a file with bookmarks

Not the most convenient option, but it can be a great help in situations when Yandex.Browser does not open due to an error, which means it will not be possible to export or enable synchronization in it. It consists of manually copying a file with bookmarks from the browser folder, reinstalling it, and then replacing the newly created file with the old one. Let's look at the procedure:


Three ways to save bookmarks allow you not to lose them and painlessly reinstall Yandex.Browser - you just have to decide which one will be preferable.

I had to suffer myself, but when the bookmarks were successfully saved and transferred to another computer, I decided to write an article on this topic. So let's get started...

Import and export of bookmarks from Yandex browser.

In fact, everything is as simple as shelling pears, as in the fairy tale about Kashchei the Immortal. The browser has a “Bookmark Manager”, and in it there is a button “Arrange”, and in the context menu there is a link “Export bookmarks to HTML...”, click it, specify the path and the bookmarks will be saved. I don’t know why, but I stubbornly did not want to click on the “Arrange” button, I thought that there would be something like “arrange alphabetically”, but it turned out that what I needed was hidden there.

Where Yandex stores bookmarks

If Yandex was installed using the standard path, then finding the required file is as easy as shelling pears. You just need to open the Yandex folder.

For those who don’t know, any browser (including Yandex) stores the entire list of sites on the computer in the form of one file called bookmarks. It is this that needs to be found and copied to another place.

Where to look for bookmarks in Yandex?

So, if you installed Yandex in a different path and don’t remember where exactly, then you can find the bookmarks file as follows:
