It sounds like you’re encountering a frustrating issue with Brave crashing while trying to import bookmarks from Microsoft Edge. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to resolve the problem:
- Update Brave: Ensure you’re using the latest version of Brave. You can check for updates in the browser settings.
- Disable Extensions: Sometimes, browser extensions can interfere with operations. Try disabling all extensions in Brave before attempting the import again.
- Clear Cache and Data: Go to Brave’s settings and clear the cache and browsing data. This might help resolve any underlying issues that are causing the crash.
- Import in Safe Mode: Try running Windows in Safe Mode and then attempt the import process. This can help identify if a third-party application is causing the issue.
- Check Windows Compatibility: Ensure that your version of Windows 10 is updated, as compatibility issues can also lead to crashes.
- Report the Bug: If the issue persists, consider reporting it to the Brave team through their official community forums or GitHub page. Provide them with details about your system and the steps you’ve already taken.
