Hey all got a question. I use my chromebook to web browse and have lot of windows opened etc. I would bookmark the pages but when i do this, i usually click on bookmark open pages and it saves all the pages on that current google chrome webpage into one folder. The thing is i haved saved over 25 of these at least. So anytime i open one, i would go to it and then open one of those bookmark folders and each time, at least 10 pages would pop up on the same chrome page since i have at least 10 tabs into it.
The thing is i want to clean my chromebook by clearing its entire history. I also do not want any of the bookmarks saved on my chromebook. How do i have all these bookmarked pages i saved sent to say my email address so whenever i want to visit these open bookmarked pages, i can just go to my email and then open some of these pages? I do not want these bookmark pages saved on my chromebook. I assume its something like have it sent your email address. Then whenever i want to visit those bookmarked pages, i have to download that file from my email? Then once i do that, i open the bookmarked files from there? Then if i want to delete these bookmarked files from my computer, just delete that file i downloaded? That way it would not be on my computer? I use my chromebook solely for web browsing.
I also want the ability to say open these bookmarked pages in say another computer as well if i like the option. So i guess this has to do with sending the bookmarked folder to an email? Then whenever i want to view those bookmarked sites, then download that file everytime to my computer? Reason being i would delete it right afterwards? Thanks.

You can export your bookmarks as an HTML file from the bookmarks menu, then email yourself that file.

Okay i see tons of bookmarked folders. Now you want me to click export bookmarks?
Once i do that, what do i press next? Do i save it and if so where? Is it to my downloads? It shows todays date... html as what is being saved. So i have to do that... save it to my downloads? Then sent that to my email address? -
Okay so i then went to my email and sent the html bookmark to my own email address. Then i tried to open file up. But how do i do that correctly? I need to import bookmark or something? Can you tell me step by step how to do this part assuming i did the previous part correct?

So once i do that, i can erase the current bookmark folder on my computer? Then when i download that html file on the laptop, how do i open it? Do i save it to my computer. Then click bookmark manager and import bookmark?

Alternatively, you can download that file and either drag into a browser window to open it, or hit CTRL-O and select that file then open in the browser.
