List of bookmarks in folder not displaying

Since upgrading to Firefox 57, several folders do not display the list of bookmarks contained within them when hovering over them in the bookmarks menu. The bookmarks are still there when I look up the folders in the library via "show all bookmarks." This issue is affecting several (but not all) bookmark subfolders in various locations in the bookmarks menu.

Try this:

  • Click on the 57 library icon library icon and go to bookmarks > bookmarking tools > add bookmarks menu to the toolbar.
  • Then 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...

    • Does that make a difference in what you are seeing?

    I was able to access the list of contents by hovering over the subfolder through the method you suggested. Didn't fix the issue when trying to access via the top bookmarks menu in the upper toolbar, but at least I have a way to get to them now. Thanks.
