      2. Browse to C:\Users\useraccount\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\
      3. Cut the Default folder, go up one folder to Google\Chrome and paste it.
      4. Launch Chrome and have the user sign back in to sync data.
        1. If the user's data does not sync or the user never logged into Chrome to begin with, you can browse to the Default folder you moved and copy/paste/replace the Bookmarks file in the newly created Default folder.
