How can I grab the .webloc?
I'm on Firefox Quantum 61.0.2. Four years ago (1/16/14, 6:55 PM), when I was on 26.0, I posted here recollecting a feature in an earlier version where you could grab the little icon right left of the URL and drag it to a Finder container, and... a teensy file would appear, named something intelligent, with the extension ".webloc". Very handy sometimes.
That feature had disappeared, but, at the time, with your help, we figured out that Command-drag would do the same thing on Version 26.0.
Now, using Version 61, that feature has disappeared again. I tried dragging with nothing, Command, Option and Control. Each of them simply opened the tab in a new window. No webloc files were created. Any idea where this feature went?
Maybe there's a better way to solve my problem besides weblocs. For one of my frequently-performed tasks, I need to open four websites simultaneously, in four separate tabs. I can enter their URLs manually, but I was hoping to have a folder containing four weblocs that I could open all at once. An Applescript would work, but is there some other Firefox feature that I could learn to use that would accomplish the same thing?

Did you try to drag the Control Center 'i' icon instead?

I wish to pint out that, last time, cor-el suggested the following mozilla help pages:
https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Creating+a+desktop+shortcut+to+a+web+page http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_desktop_shortcut_to_a_webpage
Those pages are still there and both describe exactly what I would like to do, but cannot.

Omigoodness! That worked!
Thanks, cor-el.
