In the NEW Microsoft Edge that replaced the old one in late May 2020, how do I export my favorites to a file? I have well over 2,000 favorites and I need a way to save them in case my hard drive ever goes bad. The instructions do to this for the OLD Microsoft Edge don't work in the NEW.

Hi Fuzzy
Click the 3 dots at the top right of Edge, choose Favorites - Manage Favorites
Above the list of Favorites on the resulting page, beside the 'Add Folder' link, is another 3 dots, click that and choose 'Export Favorites'
That's It!

I exported my EDGE favorites but they showed up as Firefox instead. I spend hours re-arranging then in Edge but now only half show up in Firefox. Did Firefox do something to over-ride? I noticed now when I save a .PDF file that Firefox turns it into a Firefox HTML file, which I don't want. I have seen that others report the same thing. If I un-install Firefox I am afraid that I will loose most of my favorites and PDF/HTML files. Any suggestions as I want to move favorites to a new laptop.
