Perhaps this is the wrong place but...

Is it possible to have Chrome overwrite bookmarks rather than merge them?

I have several computers - all running chrome - that I would like to sync bookmarks between. The last time I tried syncing, Chrome merged the new marks from the web with the old set of marks on the computer. Now I have a large collection of marks that I already threw away mixed in with duplicates in the new folders that set up. I assume that collection is now getting put on the web.

have you tried deleting the unwanted bookmarks from your google account?

When you answer in that way, it can only mean "no"!

What I do to make sure they don't get merged is to delete the Bookmarks file in Chrome ...

When you restart Chrome it will automatically create a new Bookmarks file (empty) then just 'sync' your Bookmarks ...
