Hi Becky Callahan
 
Try the following steps to resolve the issue. If it is not solved, Please feel to reach out to us.

Sorting Bookmarks Manually
  1. Open the Bookmark Manager:
    • Click on the three-dot menu (⁝) at the top-right corner of Chrome.
    • Hover over "Bookmarks," then click on "Bookmark Manager."
  2. Drag and Drop:
    • In the Bookmark Manager, you can manually drag and drop your bookmarks to arrange them in alphabetical order.
Use Bookmark Manager Extensions
  1. Install a Bookmark Sorting Extension:
    • There are various Chrome extensions available that can help you sort bookmarks. Search for "Bookmark Manager" or "Bookmark Sorter" in the Chrome Web Store.
  2. Sort with the Extension:
    • Once installed, follow the extension's instructions to sort your bookmarks alphabetically.
Use Chrome Sync (If applicable)
  1. Sync with Google Account:
    • If you are using Chrome sync, try signing out and signing back into your Google account. Sometimes, this can refresh the bookmark settings.
  2. Check Another Device:
    • If you have Chrome synced on multiple devices, check if the sorting option is available on another device.
Reset Chrome Settings (Last Resort)
  1. Reset Chrome Settings:
    • If none of the above methods work, you can reset Chrome settings. Go to Settings > Reset settings > Restore settings to their original defaults. Be aware that this will reset all Chrome settings to default, but your bookmarks will remain intact.
