This tutorial explains how to delete mobile bookmarks folder in Chrome and Microsoft Edge. The Mobile bookmarks folder in Chrome or Microsoft Edge is a root bookmark folder that can’t be deleted. I myself struggled a lot but eventually I found a solution that I am going to share below. There is a Chrome extension called Bookmarks Commander which can help you do this. Besides deleting bookmarks, there are other useful options in it, such as exporting bookmarks.

If for some reason, you want to delete all the favorite sites from the Mobile Bookmarks folder, then you can’t do that. You will have to manually remove bookmarks sequentially. This is by design, as there is no way to select all bookmarks and delete them all in one go. But luckily, you can do this quickly with the help of Bookmarks Commander extension. This is kind of a bookmarks manager for Chrome and Chromium based browsers, all it takes is a few clicks to delete bookmarks in Chrome.
