Storage
Bookmark File Location
This is where you can view where your bookmarks.json file is and change its location desired. It is recommended that you move the file through this setting. Although, technically you could move it manually and then update the setting in setting.json

Watch file for external change
With this checked, Pinax’s file watcher service will update the UI when changes to bookmarks.json are detected.
Create/Restore Backup Buttons

Detect duplicate bookmarks during import
