Tell me how to stop advertisers from interferring with my rows of bookmarks since many times they take my upper left bookmark location which is the one I use most often. But weird bookmarks are showing up all the time and I continually have to remove them.

Very Slow Firefox Start-up with Missing Bookmarks Due to Other Use

From Windows 11 start Firefox v 142.0.1 opens with an entirely blank page - toolbars, graphics, webpage - everything taking over a minute to load up with toolbars and then a further 2 minutes to load www.theguardian.com/uk. Firefox then frequently crashes and on re-start the bookmarks toolbar is empty - yes it is visible. I have been renaming places.sqlite to places.sqlite.old every few days since 27 Aug. The Manage Bookmarks - Library shows all bookmarks when Firefox is behaving but is completely empty when the bookmark toolbar is also empty. Restarting Firefox does not reinstall the bookmarks. The only solution is to restart Windows 11. Any ideas on speeding up and preventing this bookmark problem. Thanks

I have Firefox installed on three Windows Desktop Computers. On one, I just cannot delete Bookmarks, no matter what suggestions I try. Verify Integrity of the database produced no results. I do not, for a variety of reasons, sync bookmarks (or anything else) between the three installations. Experienced user that has spent far too long on what should be a simple issue.

Hi all. I'm trying to add Instapaper's 'Send to Kindle Bookmarklet' to the Menu Bar of Firefox on Mac and it won't work.

I've followed Mozilla suggestions when bookmarklets fail to add (essentially it's about making sure the places.sqlite-wal file in the Profiles folder is unlocked -- which it now is), but nothing changes.

Following other articles online, I've discovered that Bookmarklets in general (ie not just this one) won't install, though I have cookies temporarily off, pop-ups temporarily unblocked, the specific site marked as an exception etc, but nothing works.

Because it's not just an Instapaper issue, I'm hoping someone here more tech-minded than me might know the solution.

Many thanks in anticipation.

Hello, any best practices for converting Firefox bookmarks once they're exported? The exported_bookmarks.html are an html file which are impossible to edit. Converting so the data for folders, titles and urls can be edited is what's needed.

I tried Vi with some Regex code, however the cleaned file is not so clean.
