Importing bookmarks into Microsoft Edge

Microsoft Edge has the ability to import bookmarks, history, passwords and other information from other browsers.

This is a manual process, so please follow the steps below:

If you have any issues during this import process, please contact SVI IT at https://it.svi.edu.au/

Open Microsoft Edge and complete the initial setup process.

Click the ellipsis (…) and select Settings at the bottom of the menu.

Note: Although macOS screenshots are provided, the process is the same on Windows.

You’ll be provided with a menu, select “Import browser data”

Next select “Choose What to Import”

You’ll then be given a menu to select which browser you wish to import from and what information you wish to bring over.

macOS:

  • Apple Safari

  • Mozilla Firefox

Select Import at the bottom of the window and you’ve imported all your information from another browser.
