Firefox Bookmarks radically changed.

Firefox updates itself now and then and has been nothing short of a super tool for years. I'm at a loss.

I was moving some bookmarks about about so may have been at fault, but I don't think so, and there are loads of folk losing bookmark things on forums.

In my case I live on bookmarks - hundreds of them. All the PPRuNe regulars, Science, All my Banks, etc., etc. One of my main tools is going to Bookmarks tab and it offers me lots of things - but two in particular. Well, it did, but not now. it used to be, Bookmark this Tab and Edit this Bookmark. I would always have the new bookmark go to the Bookmarks Tool Bar and then drag it to its new home at my leisure.

(In fact, because my bar is full, it would go to the bottom of the Show more bookmarks pop-down, accessed by the two arrows to the right of the bar. I'd find the new ones at the bottom of the list.)

If I could even find Bookmark this Tab, I could probably drag it back home, but it's vanished. I've even gone back to an earlier date (firefox) but to my astonishment, it's not showing.

One day, "Bookmark" was gone. All the rest are there (I hope) I'll put it back, thinks I. Aaaaagh! I can put a couple of 'Bookmarks' tabs there, but nothing I can find gives me that vital - used every day - "Bookmark this Tab" and the Edit one.

Any ideas?
