I can't find a bookmark "folder" that I created and know exists because I can find the urls that I have bookmarked, but not the location

One of my "Folders" I created just disappeared from my "Sidebar" of Bookmarks that I 'bookmark' to every week until now. I can find the past 'bookmarks' I created so I know it is there somewhere! How can I find it?

Chosen solution

It's a bit easy to move a folder inside another one, and there isn't a built-in tool to track it down.

One technique is to load a page from that folder, then click the blue star on the toolbar. The folder should be selected in the folder "tree" if you expand that part of the dialog by clicking the "v" button to the right of the folder name.

If that doesn't help, there are a couple of other methods described in the following thread: cannot find one bookmark I accidentally moved.
