1. When I add a bookmark now, it shows that its been added whenever I click on the star in the address bar, but I can't actually locate it. I can also do a search for it in Library Bookmarks and it shows up, but it's not really there.

2. I can also create a new folder, and add bookmarks, all of which will show up in a search, but they can't be located.

3. I can't copy/cut and paste a bookmark to a different folder.

4. And what may, or may not be a side issue, I also found that the sidebar bookmarks don't exactly match the Library Bookmarks.

  1. Enter about:support in the address bar and go to Places Database section.
  2. Click the Verify Integrity button.
  3. You can paste the output here for an analysis.

In Firefox 96+ you can right-click a bookmark search/query/recent result list and click "Show in Folder" to locate this bookmark in the folder list.
