Bookmarks not being saved. Not on bar or in folder

[tacticalsnail]

None of my bookmarks are being saved on the bookmark bar nor the bookmark folder. I thought it was because I wasn’t logged in, but was proven wrong after I logged in an tried again. I have tried quitting the browser with CtrlQ and then reopening but no dice. I was originally only using favicons, but then went to the text and favicons, still didn’t work.

Hi @tacticalsnail,

Are you enable Always show the bookmarks bar under about:preferences#general > Bookmarks bar section? Are the bookmarks appears in Bookmarks Manager (about:bookmarks or Ctrl+Shift+O)?

[tacticalsnail]

Yes, sorry I should have mentioned that. It is enabled.

I’ve additional questions. Seems like you use preview version.
Are you still able to see the bookmarks in Bookmarks Manager?
Are all settings get reset? Like it’s a new fresh install?

Will cc @suguru for additional answer.

[tacticalsnail]

None of the the bookmarks get saved in the bookmarks manager after I close the browser. The settings remain the same after I close.

Thans for the info @tacticalsnail,

Did you mind to try the following steps?
First, close Brave and follow:

[Closed] Bookmarks missing

Can you press Windows key + R to open the Run bar and then type in:%appdata%\brave

And then hit enter. This will take you to the area where Brave stores your session data. You should see more than one file named something like “session-store-”. If you look at the file sizes, one of them should be bigger- you can take that and rename it as “session-store-1”. The existing “session-store-1” file should either be renamed or put into a folder.

[tacticalsnail]

There is only one “session-store-1” file located In the folder.

Also will cc @LaurenWags and @sriram for additional answer.

I just uninstalled and reinstalled…issue has been resolved. I’ll let you know if it starts acting up again.
