I set up chrome sync between two computers and someone decided to wipe out one of the folders in my bookmarks. Is there a way to get it back?

According to this Google Help forum post:

For Windows XP, go to: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default.

For Vista, go to: C:\Users\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default.

You can see a file named Bookmarks.bak. Maybe you can make a backup copy of this folder for safety purposes, but it works out usually. Delete the file Bookmarks and rename the file Bookmarks.bak to Bookmarks.
