Hi!

I want to export _all browsing data_ (not just favourites) from Microsoft Edge and import it on an another computer to the same browser. I`ve searched for a solution, but i didn`t find any. Is there a way to do this?

Hi Karen,

Yeah, I am familiar with this option, but I want to export and import my browsing history, not just favorites. I guess that this is impossible in Edge, right?

Yes, that's not possible.

Are you logged in with a MSFT account? You could try sync settings (probably only for favourites) to do that.

Beyond that http://www.emmet-gray.com/Articles/EdgeManage.html can be used to saved then import Edge favourites.

No, I cannot use MSFT account because both machines is AD joined, and I blocked the MSFT account via GPO. I have a bunch of webpages in Edge history and sometimes its easier searching for something, that I previously read, in the history rather than in Google or Bing.

Hi David,

You can only export the favorites to HTML files as the following steps:

1. Click ...(setting and more)button.

2. Click Settings -> Import favorites and other info.

3. Then click Import from another browser button jump to the following window:

There you can export the favorites file as HTML file.

And also can import other browser's favorites, browsing history, and other data from another browser to your Microsoft Edge.
