I have over 150,000 bookmarks in "unsorted bookmarks," most are duplicates, and I cannot delete them.

Besides being a nuisance, I think all these unsorted bookmarks are slowing down Firefox, particularly the Bookmarks toolbar, considerably. How can I remove them? I've started using Chrome because any time I try to use my Bookmarks Library or Sidebar, the whole thing locks up because of these unsorted bookmarks.

I have Sync, and this problem is universal across all of my sync'ed computers - XP, Vista, and Windows 8. All are running the latest version of Firefox. This has been a problem for over a year, and at least 4 different versions of Firefox.

I'm sorry if I was unclear. The bookmarks aren't duplicates I've accidentally created. They're being created by the system somehow, they are all duplicates of bookmarks I have filed in my bookmark folder structure, and I can't seen to delete them. There's 32 copies of a bookmark called "Body Basics," for example, and when I delete them all (which takes an insanely long amount of time for some reason), then close down Firefox and reopen... there they all are again. I don't need help finding the duplicates - I just need to be able to delete the 10,000 plus duplicates that Firefox has created in the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Thanks. Neither of those seem to be the problem, either. I can modify the contents of the bookmarks folders I've created myself - add, delete, move, rename - and those changes stay. It's just the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.
