Everytime I try to place a bookmark on a spot in the bookmark bar it is placed in a random spot or not moved at all.

When I try to put the bookmark in question in the position I would like it in on the bookmark bar, it either doesn't move to that position or it changes the order of other bookmarks.

I have just started using Firefox after a long while so I have not experienced this before.

Hi, some corruption I would think in your Profile : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-fix-preferences-wont-save

Create a new profile as a TEST to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem. Never work with original files.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.
