How do I transfer my Google Chrome profile to a new PC?

Now that I have Google Chrome all set up, I got myself a new laptop. Does anyone have any idea how to transfer my settings, cookies, favorites, etc?

I checked documents and settings\me\application data, and found nothing.

Solution 1:

This link should help you out - basically:

• On XP - C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data
• On Vista - C:\Users\<User Name>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data

Solution 2:

1. While logged in to the profile you wish to migrate (normally named Default if you didn't add additional profiles) enter the following URL in the address bar:

   chrome://version

2. Copy the path listed under Profile Path

3. Shut down chrome and then zip the folder and transfer it to the same location on the other machine.

Exclude the Cache folder under your profile folder to reduce file size. For example, you can copy the profile folder to a temporary location, delete the Cache sub-folder and then zip it.

Solution 3:

On your old computer:

• Go to Google Chrome, and then type in the address bar: chrome://settings/personal (or just navigate to Settings).
• Click "sync to my account" (or something like that) to sync it to your Google account.

On your new computer:

• Click the wrench icon.
• Click sign in to Chrome.

As soon as you sign in to your synced Google account, all of your settings, bookmarks, etc. are transferred.
