How do I keep my bookmarks from reseting to the top of the bookmark list once I've scrolled and clicked a bookmark?

When I scroll down and click a bookmark, the next time I open my bookmarks, it is reset at the very top again. Example, if I have 50 bookmarks with 1 at the top and 50 at the bottom, if I scroll down and click 40. It loads. Then I want to go to 42. When I click Bookmarks, it has 1 at the top again and I have to scroll all the way down to get to 42. It was not like this in Firefox 1-4. How do I revert to the old way? Is there an extension for that?

Maybe open the bookmarks in the sidebar: View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B)

Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
