Firefox, made it so that I cannot edit my bookmarks toolbar. I can't delete anything on them, but I can add them and move them if I open up the sidebar. I can't move them around any other way. Instead of a drop box asking for what I want to do, like normal, whenever I right click a bookmark a little white square pops up over the bookmark instead and won't let me do anything.

PLEASE HELP, this issue is on two laptops

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 try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting. You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
