How to Refresh Bookmark Icons in Chrome


Pedwa

I updated favicons for a bunch of my sites. Refreshing the site does indeed show the updated favicon in the browser tab, but the bookmarks for those sites still have the old favicon.

Besides removing and re-adding each bookmark, is there any way to make Chrome refresh the bookmarks for each website? Why not just visit the website but also update the bookmark icon?

Have you tried clearing the cache and restarting Chrome? Please try first. If it doesn't work, you have to force it as follows.

  1. Close Chrome
  2. Open your user data folder
  3. delete Faviconsfile
  4. run chrome
  5. Visit a website to force a redownload of the icon
