Bookmark drop down menu shows folders but no clickable links

my bookmarks menu opens up and shows me a list of my folders. Each folder has a little black arrow at the right hand end. When you click the folder it is supposed to open up and show the clickable URLs in that folder. Mine does not. I see the folders and that is it.

However, in the bookmarks drop down menu, when I click on "show all Bookmarks" a box opens up and all the bookmarked URLs and folders are in there and if I click them they will take me to the desired website.

The bookmarks are there, but something is wrong.

Also: I did a refresh and that did not fix the problem. Next I uninstalled and then re-installed Firefox and that did not fix it. In fact, the uninstall did not even remove my bookmarks. When I tried the drop down menu again all the old bookmarks were there and not working (except for the "show all bookmarks" all of those worked)

The re-install, however, did get rid of all my add-ons. So I do not think it is a conflict with an add-on.

This just started today and I have not installed any new software or done anything that I can think of that would mess with Firefox's bookmark menu.

Edit: I did add something. I added SEOBooks Rank Checker. It is gone now (from the re-install). Maybe that caused this. Anyway, I still don't know how to fix it.

Thanks for considering my question

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database (bookmarks, history) in the Firefox profile folder.

Thank you for responding. Unfortunately none of that worked.

I tried another uninstall and re-install and it came back with all the same problem.

How do I get rid of everything so I can start over. I can import all my bookmarks from backups. Or maybe I can get them from LastPass.

Additional: I also imported my bookmarks from Chrome. Those bookmarks worked but they were not in the drop down menu. They showed in a folder in the blookmarks bar. But atleast everything was there and working.
