    Default Location of "favorites"

    Where do I find the file location where my bookmarks are stored?

    depending on your OS

    Under WinXP, bookmarks are located here
    C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default

    Thanks to you both - I should have mentioned I'm using Vista.

    So if I want to "back up" my favorites, would I just copy the file named "bookmarks" then?
