In a previous post, I talked about how you can backup and restore Google Chrome Profile data. This tool is great for users who work on Chrome but you prefer some other browser like Firefox or Opera and use it as your default browser.
Today I would like to introduce you to FavBackup, a great free tool to backup and restore your important data on most popular browsers. One can create a backup of bookmarks, browsing history, cookies etc with just a snap of a finger. The user interface is very impressive and easy to use.
Using FavBackup, you can backup and restore Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera and even Flock.
How to backup and restore browser data with FavBackup
In this guide, we will show you how to backup and restore Google Chrome settings, but the method is almost the same across all browsers.
Step 1: Download the portable version of FavBackup, extract it anywhere in your computer and run FavBackup.exe.
Step 2: Select the browser you want to backup from the backup tab of the ribbon.
Step 3: Now you have to select the data and settings you want to backup, and provide the backup location on your hard drive.
Step 4: Now that everything is set up, you just have to hit the next button and wait for the app to create a backup file for your installer.
Step 5: To restore settings, navigate to the import tab in the ribbon, select your browser, import your backed up file from step 4 into the ‘Backup location’ field and click next. You can even create a new profile at the time of backup.
Note: During data recovery, FavBackup will delete all data of the current profile. If you want to keep the settings, you can create a new profile during data recovery.
My judgment
FavBackup can be very useful if you frequently use multiple browsers. From now on, you no longer have to worry about losing data and browser settings when reinstalling the operating system or when the system crashes. The portability and ease of use of the tool is also an added advantage.
