In Firefox 40 I can no longer click the blue star and open the bookmark dialog
When the current page has already been bookmarked, pressing Ctrl+D also does absolutely nothing.
Please fix the regressions. Please add automated tests to catch these regressions in the future.
Many thanks for all your very hard volunteer work on the browser.

Hi WalterGR, for me, Firefox 40 works the same as previous versions. One click adds a bookmark in the Unsorted bookmarks folder (you see the animation of the star going into the list). A second click opens the Edit Bookmark panel. Ctrl+d also is working normally.
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode.
If Firefox is not running: Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.
If Firefox is running: You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
- "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
- Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
Both scenarios: A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Refresh).
Any difference?

The functionality works when the add-on Tree Style Tabs is disabled.
How do I go about figuring out whether this is a bug in the add-on or a regression in Firefox itself?

Hi WalterGR, I suspect there was a change in Firefox that requires an update to Tree Style Tabs. The author of the extension probably has the most insight into the situation. However, if you want to research it further, this article might be a good starting point:
