I inadvertently created a duplicate of my Bookmarks Menu, the folder of which now resides at the bottom of my Bookmarks toolbar. I sometimes accidentally open it when the original is already open, and that creates confusion. I'd like to simply delete the duplicate folder -- is there any way to do that?

yes there is a simple way to do that:

To delete duplicates, click Bookmarks \ Search for duplicates. The Manage duplicate bookmarks window will appear and display all duplicates. Selecting each duplicate will show you the folder locations of the URL (bottom) and allow you to select which folder you want to delete the duplicate from by clicking Remove.

hope it helps

Thanks, but I can't find "Search for Duplicates" anywhere. Did Firefox do away with that option?

I'm running Firefox 82.0.2 on Mac OS 10.14.6 ("Mojave").
