How to export favourites/bookmarks from Microsoft Edge?

How to export favourites/bookmarks from Microsoft Edge? Or does it not have this function? Thanks.

Edge has a built-in export function, it's just hidden within the import favorites settings menu.

To export bookmarks from Edge (release 40.15) to a file:

• In the top right of the browser, click "..."
• Click "Settings"
• Click "Import from another browser"
• Click "Export to file" (yeah, I know it's not entirely intuitive considering the previous step mentions only "import")
  
• Now you should get a Save dialog with a default file name in the format of Microsoft_Edge_‎dd_‎mm_‎yyyy.html
• Save your bookmarks file to the desired folder

It is true that Edge does not have a native export function. However, there is a 3rd-party application called EdgeManage that can both import and export an HTML-based "bookmarks.html" file.

EdgeManage is the successor to EdgeExport (which is still available, but somewhat deprecated)

Kudos to Emmet Gray for the creating The Export Edge Bookmarks Tool. He shared both the code for power users and a simple .exe to extract favorites from the ESE database and export them to a standards-based "bookmark.htm" file. See www.emmet-gray.com/Articles/EdgeExport.html

Chrome and other browsers don't play nice with HTM files so you might need to convert to HTML. I am sure there are many ways to do this but Adobe makes this easy for anyone. Just use Acrobat (Arobat DC) to export to HTML

Steps:

• Close all Edge windows

• [.exe]: http://www.emmet-gray.com/Temp/SetupEdgeExport.exe "Click to save exe and install"

  or

• [ code]: http://www.emmet-gray.com/Files/ExamplesAndDemos/EdgeExport.zip/ "Click for code"

• Open saved htm file in Acrobat and export to html

Now you have HTML file that can be edited and imported into a browser that works

UPDATE

Thank you Firefox! Mozilla Firefox Version 44.0.2 now allows direct import from Microsoft Edge. Once in Firefox favorites can be exported to any browser.
