Hi Larry, it sounds as though the site icon database (favicons.sqlite) is corrupted. You can hide that file and let Firefox start gradually building a new one. Here's how:
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either
- "3-bar" menu button > "?" Help > Troubleshooting Information
- (menu bar) Help > Troubleshooting Information
- type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
In the first table on the page, on the Profile Folder row, click the "Open Folder" button. This should launch a new window listing various files and folders in Windows File Explorer.
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:
- "3-bar" menu button > Exit
- (menu bar) File > Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then:
(A) Find favicons.sqlite, right-click >, Rename to faviconsOLD.sqlite (on the theory that someday perhaps it would be recoverable; if you don't care, you can delete it instead)
(B) If you see either of these temporary files, you can delete them: favicons.sqlite-shm, favicons.sqlite-wal
Start Firefox back up again. Can you add/delete bookmarks?
