After refreshing, my bookmarks open in "black",how do I go back to the "old" way?
Before accidentally refreshing the bookmarks (from toolbar) opened with a listing. Now it opens with a series of black boxes with details showing when a box is referenced. How do I go back? I tried copying the "Old Data" folder into the current folder, but that didn't help.

Places Maintenance {web link} Allows to run Maintenance tasks on the database that drives Places, the bookmarks and history module behind Firefox.
Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on and press the Options button. Then follow the directions.
I appreciate the answers, but I wasn't able to "carry them out". I have a screenshot, which is attached. I downloaded Places Management, but don't know what to do next. I do know something about a computer, but obviously not enough, sorry.

Whatever you know today is obsolete by tomorrow :-)
About the issue, does that happen only with the bookmarks pulldown, or do the others do the same thing?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).
Is the problem still there?
It goes away in Safe Mode.
After all the help, the problem appears to be AdBlocker. Thank You!
