Hello, The bookmark toolbar has a FOLDER called "Other Bookmarks" just appeared out of nowhere and I just noticed it. It contained 4-5 links which I deleted assuming this would delete the folder and I added a random bookmark to see if that might do anything. No! I have searched for fixes including going into "About:Config" chamed tried changing the command (i.e., browser.toolbars.bookmarks.showotherbookmarks, and other similar commands from True to False), none of this did anything. There is no right-click command over the folder, "Show Bookmarks" as you can see in the screen shot. I need to get rid of this, as it is taking up valuable real estate and is an eyesore so to speak. Again, this just popped out of nowhere when I was moving/deleting bookmarks on the toolbar that wouldn't cause this folder to appear out of nowhere. Thank you in advance. I do hope someone can help!

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

Your screenshot shows the context menu and in that context menu you can notice further down a checkmark on "Show Other Bookmarks". You can remove click this checkmark to uncheck this item and hide this button. Firefox shows this folder if this folder icon if there are bookmarks stored in the Other Bookmarks to make you aware of its existence.

THAN YOU SO MUCH! I guess I was looking closely enough to see this command (yawn!). Thanks for your help!
