Delete Bookmarks on a Chromebook (2023)

There are two ways to delete bookmarks on your Chromebook. You can do so from the Bookmarks Bar or the Bookmark Manager. We have explained instructions for both methods below:

Delete Bookmarks from the Bookmarks Bar on Chrome OS

2. Next, right-click on the bookmark you want to remove and click on “Delete”. That’s all. You can repeat this for other bookmarks as well. In case you want to batch-delete multiple bookmarks at once, move to the next section.

1. Open Chrome and press “Ctrl + Shift + O” to instantly open the Bookmark Manager.

2. Alternatively, you can also click on the three-dot menu in the top-right corner and move to “Bookmarks -> Bookmark manager.”

3. Once you are here, select multiple bookmarks and click the “Delete” button in the top-right corner to remove the saved web pages.

4. If you have made multiple folders, you can open them and delete the bookmarks from each folder individually.

5. And to delete all the bookmarks on your Chromebook at once, press “Ctrl + A” to select them all. Then, click on “Delete” in the top right corner. You need to repeat this action for each folder.
