Solved Import history from local folder into new Sync account
-
Hi
I have a Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon and Vivaldi v5.2.2623.48 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit), also I have an existent Sync account #1.
I want to copy all the history and bookmarks etc from current Sync account #1 and import it into a NEW Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon where I have a separate Sync account #2 there.
What I've done so far:
- found the Profile folder on 1st PC here vivaldi://about/ and copied the Default folder locally on a USB
- got the info from the USB copied it to the 2nd PC
- on the 2nd PC, I created a Vivaldi Sync account #2
- on the 2nd PC, I went to File > Import from Applications or Files > From: Vivaldi > deselected everything besides History > selected the copied Default for Profile > clicked Import
Note: no matter what I do, I can't select as Chrome User Profile the Sync account #2
The import shows that it is working but when restarting Vivaldi on 2nd PC, none of my history from the Sync account #1 shows up.
I don't know what else to do. I tried it both with being logged into the Sync account #2, and being logged out.
Is there any way I could import the history or even the Default folder from Sync account #1 into my Sync account #2 on a separate PC?

bookmark file:
$HOME/.config/vivaldi/Default/Bookmarks
Note file:
$HOME/.config/vivaldi/Default/Notes
These two files can be directly copied and pastedHistorical file:
Presumably
$HOME/.config/vivaldi/Default/History
$HOME/.config/vivaldi/Default/History-journal
Just try copy and paste it.
I never use history -
