How to restore bookmarks


BugSir006

Recommended Posts

If you unluckily lose bookmarks, you can try to restore the bookmarks by using the backup file.

1. Open Maxthon 6 browser.

2. Open the installation path, for example, D:\Users\lenovo\AppData\Local\Maxthon\

3. Open the folder "User Data" under the folder "Maxthon"

3. Find the account folder you'd like to restore data, such as "Default"

4. Under the folder "Default," you can find and open the folder "Backups" > "BookMarks"

5. Choose a backup file, copy it, then paste it to your account folder, such as "Default"

7. Rename the backup file as "Bookmarks," no file suffix required; delete the previous file "Bookmarks."

8. Restart the browser.

Hello.
Thank you for the step-by-step explanation. But let me disagree with one point.
I found backups and did exactly as you have scheduled, but the bookmarks still disappeared time after time.
Item #1 "close the Maxthon browser" is superfluous and because of it, the instructions will not work!
The fact is, after my bookmarks disappeared, they were deleted from the cloud (synchronization). When I restored them from a backup, Maxthon checked at startup which version of bookmarks is more up-to-date, local or cloud, and each time again reset the local bookmarks!
But if you restore the bookmark file while running Maxthon, and then restart Maxthon, then the local version is considered more up-to-date and is not erased!

Thanks, so far it worked for me (unless I lost the most updated bookmarks of my other computer now... which I haven't checked yet). 
Just a few comments:

I found the backup in a different root than you stated, I think you forgot to mention "Application": 
C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Maxthon\Application\User Data\Default\Backups

Also, maybe add an step 8 to restart the browser, as that proved to be necessary to me :)

Nếu không may làm mất dấu trang, bạn có thể thử khôi phục dấu trang bằng cách sử dụng tệp sao lưu.

1. Mở trình duyệt Maxthon 6.

2. Mở đường dẫn cài đặt, ví dụ: ? \ Users \ lenovo \ AppData \ Local \ Maxthon \

3. Mở thư mục "Dữ liệu người dùng" trong thư mục "Maxthon"

3. Tìm thư mục tài khoản bạn muốn khôi phục dữ liệu, chẳng hạn như "Mặc định"

4. Trong thư mục "Mặc định", bạn có thể tìm và mở thư mục "Sao lưu"> "BookMarks"

5. Chọn tệp sao lưu, sao chép, sau đó dán vào thư mục tài khoản của bạn, chẳng hạn như "Mặc định"

7. Đổi tên tệp sao lưu thành "Dấu trang", không yêu cầu hậu tố tệp; xóa tệp trước đó "Dấu trang".

8. Khởi động lại trình duyệt.
