Strange. Are you able to delete any bookmarks at all? I guess you can't do this directly from the bookmarks menu, but must use ctrl-I to access the tree view and delete bookmarks from there. You also have to turn the virtual cursor off to properly navigate through the tree. It sounds like you already know how to delete bookmarks though and that they keep reappearing? That's certainly odd.

For years, Ive been using the PlainOldFavorites extension and while I havent actually used IE in forever, Ive always liked IEs favorites layout simplicity In any event, Ive recently been trying to work with Firefox bookmarks and am dealing with a frustrating issue. There appear to be some bookmarks that no matter how much I try to delete/get rid of them, theyre still showing up in my bookmarks menu. This is making jumping to a bookmark by the first letter tedious and much longer than when working in IEs favorites layout. They seem to be showing up right after the most recent bookmarked option. Be it deleted folders or unsorted bookmarks. Was just wondering if Im missing something on how to better sort the Firefox bookmarks menu or if this is just going to be a part of dealing with this feature? I do already have bookmarks set to sort by name. Using the latest JFW 2018 recently released and am on Firefox 56.X. Ive already disabled the automatic update in Firefox and will only update once the noted screen reader issues are finally resolved. Any input would be appreciated.
