Hi Karthik, was the bookmark saved at all? You could cross-check the Recent bookmarks list at:

menu button > Bookmarks

The latest bookmark should be first on the list.

If the bookmark is listed:

When you load that bookmarked page, you can click the blue star icon in the address bar to open the Edit bookmark panel. To the right of the folder name is a button that opens a list showing the whole folder hierarchy. Does that show the expected location or some unexpected location?

If you cannot save new bookmarks:

This can indicate a problem with updating one of Firefox's settings files.

First, if you haven't already, please do a normal shutdown and/or restart of your system. Restarting Windows can help by freeing up locked files, completing any deferred updates, and resolving temporary file permission issues.

Next, if Firefox still has bookmark problems, could you let us know what you get when you run the "Verify Integrity" diagnosis and repair function. That's here:

Open Firefox's Troubleshooting Information page using any of these methods:

  • "3-bar" menu button > Help > More Troubleshooting Information
  • (menu bar) Help > More Troubleshooting Information
  • type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter

Near the bottom, there is a section titled Places Database -- that's the file which stores history and bookmarks. Click the button labeled Verify Integrity. There may be a 10-15 second delay before results appear.

If all is well, the report that appears below the button should start with:

> Task: checkIntegrity
+ The places.sqlite database is sane
+ The favicons.sqlite database is sane
> Task: invalidateCaches
+ The caches have been invalidated
> Task: checkCoherence
+ The database is coherent

Does yours say that, or something else? You can select and copy the report, and then paste it into a reply for review and comment.
