Google-chrome – Google Chrome bookmarks issue

bookmarksgoogle-chrome

I have been having a strange issue with the Google Chrome bookmarks bar. Every time I install Google Chrome and sync with my GMail account, I get dozens of bookmarks folders into my bookmarks. Its just folders and subfolders of my one bookmarks folder repeating. You can see the issue below:

I delete these folders, but every time I install a new instance of Chrome, they all come back. I dont understand why they keep coming back.

Anyone have an idea how to fix this?
