where are google chrome sync bookmarks stored? [closed]

I need to access a website from my bookmarks but i don't want to sync my bookmarks to another persons computer.. Once i was able to open the stored bookmarks in Google docs, but there is no way to access the bookmarks now.

Is there a way to access my synced bookmarks without syncing ?

Where are the rest of my bookmarks?

Hover over/click on "Bookmarks" and the left menu will pop out. There you'll see a similar bookmark menu with options like "Show Bookmarks Bar", "Bookmark Manager" and so on. If you hover over, for example, a bookmark folder (the same folder we discussed above), you'll see all your bookmarks.

The google documentation says nothing about being able to access them, Also, when you go to "Manage accounts" in you google account it says:

Chrome sync Nothing interesting here. Stop sync and delete data from Google Chrome privacy policy

So I guess it's impossible to do through their website without syncing... You can try syncing, copying all the bookmarks you need, and stop the syncing.

If you have some kind of remote access to your computer you can go to the Chrome data folder, in Windows 7 it's located in: C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data Maybe try messing around there... there are files with the name "bookmarks" and they're not encrypted or anything...
