I am sorry I updated the new Firefox version. Now I cannot see my bookmarks any longer on the left-hand margin. And you provide no instruction on how to make them visible.

You can open the bookmarks sidebar via the Ctrl+B keyboard shortcut.

  • View -> Sidebar -> Bookmarks
  • Library button -> Bookmarks -> Bookmark Tools: View Bookmarks Sidebar

You can add the "Bookmarks Menu" button that shows the bookmarks in a drop-down list to the Navigation Toolbar via these steps:

  • click the bookshelf 57 library icon icon on the Navigation Toolbar or alternatively use the Library menu in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button New Fx Menu drop-down list
  • click Bookmarks
  • click "Bookmarking Tools", then click "Add Bookmarks Menu to Toolbar"
The Bookmark Menu button Bookmark Menu icon (star on tray) should appear on the Navigation Toolbar.

You can also drag the Bookmarks Menu button from the Customize palette to the Navigation Toolbar

If the left-hand side Bookmarks Toolbar is open when you exit Firefox, it will be open when you launch Firefox the next time.
