Keeping your chrome bookmarks, passwords and history during the Windows 10 update


A lot of us rely on our saved bookmarks, passwords and history in Google Chrome.  Because of an update to Windows 10 that is underway by our IT department, everyone will need to sign into Chrome to save these features and settings by end of day this Friday, August 31st.  

See the below message from our Technical Support Analyst Will Doren:

"We are in the process of updating Windows 10 to the latest version. With this upgrade your google chrome will be reset to the original settings therefore erasing your saved bookmarks passwords and history, but by signing into Chrome you can save all these features and settings. Please see the instructions below and use your CCI Issued GMail Account.  This will be courtinnovation.org, sossouthbronx.org, crownheights.org, legalhand.org. If you have any questions please reach out to ccitechsupport@nycourts.gov for help."

Please see this article about how to save your Google Chrome settings.  This update is only related to settings on your desktop, so please disregard Part 3 of the article about mobile settings.

How to change default software

When you open files, do they open in a different software than the one you'd like to use?  Sick of links opening in Firefox instead of Google Chrome? You can reset the default software your computer uses to open different types of files or search the web.   To change a default software, just open your Windows menu in the bottom left hand corner of your screen.  Then click on the gear icon to open Settings. Go to "Apps" and then "Default Apps".  Here you can select which software your computer defaults to when you browse the web, look at photos, etc. More info  here .
