Is there any way or an add-on that will allow me to add a simple button to my toolbar that with ONE CLICK triggers the "Show All Bookmarks" command which will open the separate Library window with the list of my bookmarks?

Firefox used to have a Bookmarks button for over a decade since about version 2.7 that disappeared several versions ago and I still find myself missing it. I do no not want to click more than once, dig through some menu or drop down to open it. I don't want to use the keyboard either. I know Firefox has a Library button, but it makes you navigate menus too.

I want a simple ONE CLICK solution.

Hi, there is still a bookmarks button. If it's missing, open the 3-bar menu > Library > Bookmarks > Bookmarking tools, and click Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar - see Bookmarks in Firefox. If you don't see it on the toolbar, go to the 3-bar menu > Customize, and look for it in the palette, from where you can drag it to a toolbar. If the button is still missing, try clicking on Restore Defaults. More Customize Firefox controls, buttons and toolbars. (There is also a sidebar button in the Customize palette which you can drag to a toolbar).

Not ideal I know, but you can open the bookmarks library with Ctrl+Shift+O
