In this version I have to click on bookmark icon then there appears a list of bookmarks none of which I need. Then go to bottom and click on show all bookmarks. Then I have to left side of screen and I can find below theses items bookmark menu, below that recently bookmarks, recent tags then the bookmark file folders that I need. My question is how do I get the folders I want to appear when click the bookmark icon that I get what I need without going through a three step process?

hi, in the firefox quantum default layout the combined library icon for bookmarks/history/downloads...) is replacing your bookmarks button that you're used to - when you go into customization mode, you can place the dedicated bookmarks button back onto the toolbar though ;-)

This was not what was asked. I think @richard1234 and I have the same question. In the previous version, we had an icon that would expand and show the same content that we have on the bookmark toolbar without the need to have the toolbar open.

The question here is how do we recover that.

Regards.
