Unable to delete some bookmakrs

I have accumulated a LOT of bookmarks over the years. I want to streamline it and delete several so I have room to add more but it will not delete them. How do I go about deleting the bookmarks I want and adding more that I do want? It's very frustrating

Hi there! Fellow Firefox user here. Depends on whether you have a macbook or windows, but the basic steps are: Press Ctrl+Shift+B (or Cmd+Shift+B on Mac) to open the Library window (Bookmarks Manager) --> Navigate through your bookmarks on the left sidebar --> Right-click on any bookmark or folder you want to delete --> Select Delete.

If that doesn't work, check out these links: 1) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/recover-lost-or-missing-bookmarks 2) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-bookmarks-and-history-will-not-be-functional 3) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1387210

Hope this helps!
