    bookmarks & fonts changed overnight ... help please


    Hello forum
    For some reason it seems my bookmark folders have gone a horrible gray colour and all the fonts have gone smaller, I really do not like this look at all, it looks cold and unfriendly if you can say that about a bookmark page

    I am betting that this question has been asked before but I have been looking on search engines for a few days without finding an answer, now discovered this forum and am hoping that some kind person can help me to restore my bookmarks back to yellow folders and original font size.

    I apologize if I am causing repeat information to be made, I am not very computer literate so hoping there is a not to difficult answer if there is one.

    Thanks for any help.

    Hi ONTHEEDGE. Welcome to the TenForums @ONTHEEDGE

    I don't have an answer for you but I'm sure it will help if you identify Browser this happened in.

    Bookmarks is a generic term that Firefox and Chrome use, Edge calls them Favorites.

    Internet Explorer also calls them Favorites. SeaMonkey, Vivaldi and Pale Moon calls them Bookmarks.

    Hi
    Should have said that I am using Chrome.

    Don't know if this is being done to lots of computers, I don't recall clicking on anything that would lead to this happening.

    Thanks in advance for any help in getting my bookmarks back to how they were.

    Can you post a shot of yours.

    (Have them showing and then hit print screen key. Then paste into paint, wipe out confidential stuff and snip the piece you want to post.)

    What extensions do you have running, have you disable all to see if that changes things?

    Within Settings what font size are you using and under Custom fonts have you made any changes?

    Hi
    Here is a screen shot of my bookmark page with the gray folders which used to be a mid yellow colour, the bookmarks on the right now seem to be a smaller text and wider apart than before.

    I have looked at what extensions there are and all I can find is this.

    Google docs offline

    below that is .....
    (chrome apps)
    Docs
    Slides

    All have the blue bar/button showing there on/enabled I am assuming.

    thats all there is, don't know if this helps.

    Thanks ............

    Well it looks like you are in the Bookmarks manager so that is where I went. Mine looks exactly the same. As to the Font that looks like it is control by "Fonts" under Appearance (my previous post).

    So what size Font to you have set?

    In my screen shot the folders are yellow but I was not in Manager, I was just browsing.

    Check another machine, same appearance. Assume Google has decided in Manager to blacken them, seems odd.
