If you have a Google account, your Google Chrome bookmarks and settings are saved to your Google account. If you don't have an account, you might want to make a backup of your bookmarks to import later. Here's how.

Export Google Chrome Bookmarks to HTML

Click on the three dots in the top-right corner. Click on Bookmarks, then click on Bookmark manager. Keyboard junkies can click Ctrl + Shift + O to open the Bookmark manager in a new tab.

Click on the three dots in the top-right corner and click on Export bookmarks.

File Explorer will open, allowing you to choose a folder and optionally change the file name. Click on Save when ready.

The HTML file will automatically have the date in the file name. For example, if you saved the file on October 1, 2020, the file name default is bookmarks_10_1_20.html.

Chrome will now import your bookmarks.
