I create folders like "social sites" to put all my folders for social sites. Or "things of interest" and i put a lot of sites i need to come back to and do research on. But i made a folder and its taking up space now. I deleted all the site on it, and of course i deleted the name on the folder...but now its just sitting there, and it wont go away no matter what i do. I need it to create a little more space on my browser. I mean, i cant even add sites or change its name because it wont save it. This has been happening for a while, i have been waiting for an update on firefozx to fix it but know i see its not helping...any tips or help would be amazing guys! I just want to delete this folder from my browser.

I think you mean a Bookmarks folder.

Click: Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks and delete it from the Library.

You will not be able to delete the main Bookmarks folder, which sorta makes sense!

No its not a MAIN bookmark folder...like i said i create folders all the time and erase them accordingly, i just left click and add new folder...then i edit its name, and add links to it so i can go back to it later. And i have done it a lot of times, and deleted some of them ( i just deleted one a few hours ago). But there is one folder that wont get deleted, i created it, but i cant delete it, its just stubbornly sitting there and wont budge. i even tried the bookmarks> organize..thing and anything i could think of.

Try a right click and select Delete.

If that doesn't work - right click and select Properties, what does it say?

i tried the left click...does not work. And as far as properties go...blank comes out. I deleted all of the sites from the folder...when i click on the folder it has nothing in it and then when i go to bookmarks>organize there is still some of old sites in there like i never deleted them. When i go over the folder and click on it ( as to open it) a tiny little white square comes out...but i am guessing that its just telling me there is nothing in it.
