Why do I suddenly have an additional Manage Bookmarks?
It just showed up today at the bottom of "Show your bookmarks". Was there an update or have I accidentally used a shortcut of some kind? Can I remove it? Firefox is up to date.
Thanks in advance

You can add CSS code to the userChrome.css file to hide that second menu item.

That opens the Bookmarks Manager full window.

Thanks a bunch, that worked.
Do you have any idea why this happened in the first place? Just so I can prevent it from happening again.
