For the past couple months or so, the bookmarks on my Firefox browser have been nothing but trouble. Whenever I click on Show your bookmarks, the browser freezes up and I get a Not Responding message after that. Could it be that the bookmarks are corrupted and something needs to be done about them or could the browser itself have corruption?

Let's see if this works;

Places Maintenance {web link} Allows to run Maintenance tasks on the database that drives Places, the bookmarks and history module behind Firefox.

Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on and press the Options button. Then follow the directions.

What will that do just in case I happen to try it?

This can make repairs to the data files.

I meant for Firefox, sorry.

Can't even add bookmarks at all at the moment.

And now Firefox is back to freezing again.

Are you using Sync to sync the bookmarks?

If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync while performing maintenance/repair efforts to files in the Firefox profile folder.

Note that Firefox has a button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" page to verfiy the integrity of the places.sqlite database.

If the Places Maintenance extension can't repair the places.sqlite database then remove all places.sqlite file(s) in the Firefox profile folder to make Firefox rebuild the places.sqlite database from the most recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.

I'm going to use another browser instead of Firefox because it's just giving me way too much trouble.
