Google Chrome offers a bookmarking feature that allows you to save frequently visited sites under Mobile Bookmarks. You can open the Bookmarks menu from the More option to View, Edit, and even Delete the saved bookmarks.
When signed in with a Google account, these mobile bookmarks are synced across the connected devices, which sync on your computer browser.

June 2023, and my bookmark star disappeared months ago, and no way to quickly do it, only the longer manual way. Switching browsers, nothing but issues with chrome for way too long, and through TOO many updates.
Hello Jane, the Chrome browser has the sync feature that automatically synchronize the data between devices when connected with same Google account. By any chance you deleted the bookmarks from any one device? It’s possible that you’ve deleted it from one device and bookmarks from other devices are removed.
