If you intend to switch to Firefox Quantum from Chrome, Firefox can import bookmarks, saved passwords, browser history and cookies directly from Google Chrome. It can also import this data from Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer.
Sync bookmarks , passwords, history and cookies
Firefox often prompts users to enter data when installing for the first time. However, if you have installed Firefox before and want to import data, users will need to do it manually. The Import Browser Data tool is in the Bookmarks Manager window.
To access Bookmarks Manager, click the library icon on the toolbar and click Bookmarks> Show All Bookmarks or press Ctrl + Shift + B.
Click the Import and Backup button on the toolbar and select Import Data From Another Browser . (If you only want to import the exported bookmarks from Chrome or another browser as an HTML file, users just need to click Import Bookmarks from HTML and then select the HTML file.)
Select Chrome in the Import Wizard and click Next to import data from Google Chrome, making sure all Google Chrome browser windows are closed before proceeding.
The user will be prompted to select the data to import. If you have set up multiple Chrome browser profiles, it will first ask for the configuration you want to import. By default, Firefox will enter cookies, browsing history, saved passwords and bookmarks, you can uncheck any of these options to enter only certain types of data.
Firefox will enter data and notifications when successful sync. Chrome's bookmarks will be placed in the From Chrome folder in the menu and the bookmark toolbar, but users can reorganize bookmarks in their own way.
Download add-ons
Firefox can't import other data like utilities, users have to find the equivalent extensions in the Firefox add-on library. If using a popular add-on from a large company, users can find an extension version for Chrome created by the same developer. Small, independent extensions may not be available for both browsers, but a similar extension may be found.
Synchronize Firefox browser data with computer
Firefox has a browser synchronization feature that can hold data on multiple computers, phones and tablets. Check Firefox Sync settings by clicking menu> Options> Firefox Account . If you haven't logged in with your Firefox account, users can create an account to start syncing data.
Sign in with the same Firefox account on all devices and data will be synced, just like with Chrome. Firefox syncs open tabs, history, bookmarks, logins, add-ons. So once Firefox has been set up, it will sync your personal preferences with all other computers.
Users also receive this data on phones or tablets. Firefox provides Apple's iPhone and iPad apps as well as Google's Android and also syncs bookmarks, open tabs, saved passwords and history on mobile devices.
With Firefox Quantum, Firefox uses Google as its default search engine. Yahoo! No longer the default, so don't worry about that change.
