Load the website/page in the browser. Mouse to the address box. Hold down the left button on the symbol (not the shield) and move it to the desktop. Then let the button go.

For me, this problem started today (auto update to Firefox for Windows v102.0) and appears to have this issue for websites/addresses that do not end with .html or .htm.
