Hi phreddie46, you can hide the gray heading Recently Bookmarked and following five bookmarks using one of these methods:

(1) Context Menu

Right-click the "Recently Bookmarked" text and choose Hide Recently Bookmarked from the bottom of the right-click context menu

Note: On Mac, you need to do this on the bookmarks menu that drops from the toolbar button shown in the following image, it doesn't work on the Bookmarks Menu that drops from the main menu bar.

(2) Directly Edit a Preference

The menu item switches a hidden preference from true to false, and you can do that directly as follows:

(A) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(B) In the search box above the list, type or paste book and pause while the list is filtered

(C) Double-click the browser.bookmarks.showRecentlyBookmarked preference to switch the value from true to false

Success?
