How to restore deleted favorites in chrome on windows 8?

Question

A friend of me has a windows 8 laptop and Google Chrome as browser. She has deleted its favorites. I know a file exists on Windows 7 in AppData : bookmarks.bak I looked on a Windows 8 laptop but i've only found the bookmarks file (with no .bak extension) in the folder Chromium in AppData/Local

Is there a solution to retrieve the favorites ?

Solution

In order to restore your deleted favorites in chrome you need to restore the previous file (P.S: YOU NEED TO TURN :

• Type in C:\Users\ then click your username, then AppData then Local, Google, Chrome, User Data and then Default.
• Locate the Bookmarks file - this is not a folder.
• Right click on Bookmarks
• Select restore to previous session
• Choose which date best suits your needs (CHOOSE WISELY) and click on it once and then click RESTORE not OPEN.
• A new window will open in order to confirm this you need to press Restore again.
• This should have restored your bookmarks to the correct day.
• Turn off the option of "Show hidden files"

Your Favorites will be back to normal :)
