Bookmarks in Firefox will not delete.
I have tried every firefox method to delete my bookmarks so I can organize and they will not delete. Understand I have done my research and looked for YouTube videos. They will not delete. I like using firefox for all my searches and my web development. But cannot delete bookmarks.

[v57+] Places Maintenance is built into Firefox.
Type about:support<enter> in the address bar.
You will find Places Database near the bottom. Press the Verify Integrity button.
When done, copy and post the results here.

Were you able to fix the places.sqlite database because you marked the thread as solved?
sorry no how do I fix?
If you use Sync then best is to disconnect Sync temporarily during troubleshooting.
If "Verify Integrity" on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page cannot repair places.sqlite then remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from a recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
- keep a backup copy of places.sqlite in case a new places.sqlite database has to be created

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.

The folder does not allow me to delete the file. Can I reinstall Firefox?

Can you clarify what happens if you try to remove places.sqlite ?
Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support to see if that works better in case security software is causing problems.
At first it would not let me delete the file. So I refreshed it and it allowed me to delete some files. But then again it stopped letting me delete. Then it did allow me to delete the file and nothing was working so I reinstalled and we are back to the beginning.

Note: Some software, like Advanced SystemCare with Surfing Protection, can protect files in the Firefox profile folder against changes. If you have such software then check the settings or uninstall this software.
