Cannot delete a bookmark in "Unsorted Bookmarks". I tried "resetting" of firefox.

I can't delete individual "Unsorted Bookmarks." I have no problem to delete bookmarks from the Menu "Favorites".

I have a lot of these bookmarks that I can't remove. They just clutter up the drop down bookmarks menu and make it almost unusable.

No need to delete the entire category "Unsorted Bookmarks", although this would be an acceptable solution.

COR - el: thanks for the quick response. It has not solved the problem, but something that you said does not lead to a solution.

To reformulate the problem, there was a lot of bookmarks, which appeared in the drop-down menu that simply cannot be deleted.

I was able to delete 'normal' bookmarks by bringing their respective pages on the left by clicking on the star in "Edit this bookmark" which appears near the right end of the URL field and then clicking "Delete bookmark" from the context menu that appears. In this case, the star would be yellow and in the popup, the folder would be called bird "Bookmarks Menu".

Where I couldn't delete the bookmark, the star would be white and the record would be qualified bird "Unsorted Bookmarks."

It made no difference if I started firefox in safe or normal mode.

It had been years that I used the bookmarks bar and I had completely forgotten it existed. You mentioned it in your response, however, and I decided to try it. Bingo! In the sidebar, I could with the right Bookmark button and then click 'remove '. It worked even for bookmarks that I could not remove any other way.

I don't know if it is a bug in version 16 of firefox, or if somehow my bookmarks file had accumulated incorrect metadata for many years to update version.

In any case, for me, is a problem solved.
