Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. I want to import bookmarks from when I was using Firefox. I already have many bookmarks on Brave and don’t want to lose them. If I import the Firefox bookmarks will it overwrite my existing Brave bookmarks or will it just add them?
    Thanks

**Brave Version 1.32.106 Chromium: 96.0.4664.45 (Official Build) (64-bit)

It will just add them into their own folder, and then you can move them around wherever you want within your Brave folders.

But, I still suggest taking a backup (export) from Brave first as a safety net. You can always delete it later if you want.

What JimB1 said, but I’ll add that it’s a good idea to make weekly backups.

Just on general principles.

True.
Good idea. I’m not the best at back ups.
