Since yesterday, I have not been able to add new bookmarks. I want to add two new ones. (I can update or delete bookmarks.) I have read and tried the solution article (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/cant-add-change-or-save-bookmarks), but the fix did not work for me. I am using Windows 11 Pro (fully updated) and Firefox 143.0.1 (64-bit). By the way, Brave is my secondary browser. I can add the two new bookmarks in it without problems. Could someone provide a solution other than the one in the article that I have cited? Again, that solution did not work for me. Thank you.

Well, what do you know? Firefox seems to have fixed its own glitch without a recent update. I just happened to notice today that I can add new bookmarks. This matter is now resolved, until it comes back up again!

Enter about:support in the address bar and click the Verify integrity button in the Places database section. It should produce a log that you can paste here for an analysis.

Thanks, TyDraniu, for your reply. The following is copy/pasted from Verify Integrity: Places Database: > Task: checkIntegrity - Unable to fix corruption, places.sqlite will be replaced on next startup > Task: checkCoherence - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: expire - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: vacuum - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: stats - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: _refreshUI - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task.

Of course, the corrupt places.sqlite was not fixed yesterday when I rebooted and even shutdown and restarted. Any further help will be greatly appreciated!
