I get this error :
.config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks.bak: Permission denied
How can I get acces? I want to be able to change the name in bookmarks, as to restore the bookmarks folder I cut and lost in Chrome. It's a months work in bookmarks and I need it for my study. Anyone please?
To restore the Chrome bookmarks you need to rename the Bookmarks.bak file to Bookmarks. To do that you just need to open a file browser and navigate to the .config/google-chrome/Default directory. You'll need to show hidden files by going to View->Show hidden files first as any directory/folder which starts with a . in Linux is hidden. Then with Chrome closed, delete the current Bookmarks file and rename the Bookmarks.bak file.
Alternatively you can open a terminal and use the mv command
mv ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Bookmarks.bak ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Booksmarks
