Hi ilyabyk83,

Assuming that it is the same file. Browse to G:\Progz\Bookmarks.htm and right-click on it. From the menu that appears, select Edit. Can you please paste an image showing the file heading, as shown in Step 22 from my Tutorial.

Hey!! Thank You for trying. I just said "Screw It!", and since the file at least opened but didn't import, I manually re-added every bookmark I had. It just took some time. Thank You. Don't worry abou it anymore.

I am being given the "Not a valid bookmark file" error. I looked at the text of the file and it starts with the line "<!DOCTYPE...". Also, I was able to open the file in internet explorer and follow each of the links. Any Ideas?
