I have two desktop computers set up to sync with each other. Both can create new bookmarks. Sync is fast and accurate. Computer B can delete bookmarks and they are deleted on both A and B. Computer A can delete bookmarks but they are NOT deleted on computer B.

I want either computer to have the permissions to delete bookmarks on the other.

Thanks Corel for taking the time. I did manage to solve the problem by resetting Firefox on computer A.

Now either computer can add or delete bookmarks and the change is reflected on the other.

Are that bookmarks that come from the other computer and are merged via Sync?

I don't think that you can remove bookmarks that originate from another computer.
