I loaded 8.0. I added a new bookmark in the toolbar. Now that bookmark loads when started on the left side of my screen plus the normal Firefox tab opens. This left window has no tab and is about a fourth the size of of my monitor. It will access the web. How do I get rid of it?

thanks

Can you toggle the Bookmarks sidebar on/off via "View > Sidebars > Bookmarks" or Ctrl+B ?

If you can't close the sidebar then see:

Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.
You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).
In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.
Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected.

The box is not checked. I deleted the bookmark and the side bar is still there.
