Puzzlingly clunky operation of "Bookmark current tab" on one of my two laptops.

When I try to bookmark a page, I expect to see "Bookmark current tab" and when I click that, to be offered 1) to put it in the same place that the last bookmarked page was put 2) or, alternatively, to be given a choice of locations.

This is what happens on one of my two laptops.

On the other laptop, I am not offered a choice of locations. I am simply forced to bookmark the new page in the location where the previous bookmark that I made is, and I then have to go to "Edit This Bookmark" and move the new bookmark from the location where it currently sits, to the location that I want. This is clunky and inconvenient.

How can I configure this second laptop to behave like the other laptop?

The "Edit This Bookmark" dialog that opens if you click the highlighted star has a checkbox with "Show editor when saving" (shortcut key in the dialog is Alt+S). This item is at the bottom just above "Remove Bookmark" and "Done". You can click the highlighted star a second time to open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog.

See "How do I change the name or location of a bookmark?"
