Q: Cannot remove Chrome data on Safari, and thus cannot delete bookmarks.

I have recently decided to change from Chrome to Safari, however, I have found my saved bookmarks from years ago, which I had saved on Chrome previously. I have done everything I can, such as stopping the sync of Google data, but everytime I try to delete something from the Bookmarks Bar in Safari, all it says is

 

"You have been using Safari with bookmarks and history imported from Google Chrome. To edit your bookmarks, you must first keep or remove the Google Chrome data. Safari imported these when you started using it on January 1, 4001, so you could try out Safari with your own data."

 

Whether I click "Don't Keep" or "Keep Data" makes no difference because nothing changes.

It is really bothering me, so please let me know what I can do to get rid of the bookmarks! Thanks in advance
