I use Windows 7 and am organizing my bookmarks in Firefox. I want to save time by using a keyboard stroke rather than the pull down menu with the Move command. Doesn't the underlined M mean a keyboard stroke should activate the MOVE command? I have tried the Ctrl key and the Alt key with the M to no avail. What key provides the right stroke to activate MOVE from the keyboard rather than the pulldown menu. I assume there must be a command; otherwise, why is the M in MOVE underlined.

Chosen solution

Such a shortcut only works if you have that menu open, so in case of the Organize menu you need to press Alt+O and M to activate Move.

You can also use Cut (Ctrl+X) and Paste (Ctrl+V) instead.
