i used to be able to hover over bookmarks in the drop down menu of history/ saved bookmarks icon and have a bookmarks list ordered in the way i want appear. now i have to click on bookmarks and a recently bookmarked window opens with list items not order how i want. i then have to click on tools and then click view sidebar to see a bookmark list ordered the way i want. this is a downgrade in my opinion. i liked it the way it was. i can find no way to order the recently bookmarked list. i do not want bookmarks toolbar or sidebar always on screen. i want an easy way to open a bookmarks window with the list arranged how i want. rather like it was before this latest update!

hi, the following steps should get you back to the bookmarking structure you're familiar with :))

  • click on the 57 library icon library icon and go to bookmarks > bookmarking tools > add bookmarks menu to the toolbar.
  • now when you click the Bookmark Menu icon (star on tray) icon that's newly appearing on the toolbar, you'll get to the same bookmarks menu like in earlier versions...
