I think you mean that you reproduced the steps I gave, and it worked for you too.

But, of course, that just means that we haven't figured out how to reproduce the problem yet.

Oh, yes.  That's why, by default, before an export, BookMacster checks to see if you are using Chrome's sync and, if so, launches Chrome and does the export via our Chrome extension, so that Chrome can deal with changes from BookMacster and from the cloud.  We call this a coordinated sync.  However, it is possible to switch this behavior off, so you should check and see if you have done that.  Also, merging syncs from two different sources is one of the more thorny problems in computer programming, and it is possible that Chrome sometimes drops one or more of the balls in the process.  I've never spent much time testing how reliable it is, but on the other hand do not recall any complaints so I presume it works pretty good most of the time.

There have not been any recent changes to that behavior.  As always, you control whether or not a document opens in the bookmarkshelf's tab: Settings > Open/Save > checkbox Automatically open this document when BookMacster launches.

Hello, Merciless.

That is not expected behavior.  I just retested such an export, and it works for me.  To ensure that I understood you correctly, here is what I did:

• Verify that Chrome is not running.
• Open a .bkmslf document in BookMacster.
• Add a new bookmark with a distinctive name, including the current date and time, to the Bookmarks Bar.
• Click in the menu: File > Export to Chrome.
• Verify that Chrome is still not running (that is, BookMacster did not launch Chrome).
• Launch Chrome.
• Verify that the new bookmark appears in Chrome's toobar.

Some things to check:

• Do you maybe have multiple Person profiles in Chrome?  Are you exporting to the same Person profile that you are later looking at in Chrome?
• Immediately after the export, does a result appear in the Status View at the bottom of the BookMacster window?  It should indicate something like Export ⇢ Chrome (+1 Δ1 ↖0 ↕3 -0) .
• In BookMacster click in the menu: BookMacster > Logs.  One of the last entries should be Will write to Chrome in style 1.  (Style 1 is the quick direct style which is used when Chrome is not running.)  Is that there?  If not, click the Errors tab.  Any recent errors?
