How do I get rid of USELESS seperators in Favorites?

FF for my Admin account has multiple separators with a line of space between them WASTING space in the column. I cannot choose and delete them, I can't move them or move any favorites into the space. Importing updated favorites just adds to the problem. See edited screenshot. Refreshing/resetting FF 65.0.1 (current), for the account, did NOT solve this problem.

FF for my user (this account) account does NOT have this problem. Windows 10 Pro with all current updates.

The answer was somewhat helpful. It could have been better. It did point me in the right direction.

This is what worked for me: (Windows 10) Click "Bookmarks". ( I have the "Bookmarks" icon in the FF taskbar to the right of the search box) Choose "Show All Bookmarks" (Ctrl+Shift+B) From the Library window that displays, click "Bookmarks Menu". Click on the first line, now press and hold "Shift" and click on the last line to highlight the multiple seperator lines. (I could delete each individually, but this is faster & easier.) Then right click and choose "Delete" (Cut doesn't work). All gone!

Try doing it from the Bookmarks Manager. Open the Bookmarks Manager; Press the Alt or F10 key to bring up the toolbar, and select Bookmarks. Hot key is <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> B.
