- Select More Options: Within the Favorites menu or window that opens, find and select More options. This might also be represented by three dots.
- Choose Import Favorites: From the subsequent menu, select the Import favorites option.
- Select the Source Browser: A window will appear asking you where you want to import from. In the Import from menu, select either Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox, depending on which browser contains the favorites you wish to import.
- Choose What to Import: You may be given options on what specific data to import (like favorites/bookmarks, history, passwords, etc.). Ensure Favorites or bookmarks is selected.
- Start the Import: Finally, select the Import button.
Microsoft Edge will then import the selected data from your chosen browser. Once the process is complete, your favorites from Chrome or Firefox will be available in your Edge browser.
