Unexpected folder appearing in Bookmarks; name "Avast Bookmarks".

So, I opened up Avast Secure Browser and this folder just randomly appeared in my Bookmarks. It just has my Bookmarks and three other websites which are supposedly “saved from mobile devices”, even though I’ve never used Avast products on my mobile devices…
What is happening here?

Just realized they’re imported from Chrome.

Hi!

thanks for this information! It looks like these bookmarks were imported from your default browser - this option is enabled by default during the installation process, so, I suppose, you did not disable this option during installation, that is why bookmarks were imported :slight_smile:
