I am not able to delete all the bookmarks that I select to delete by clicking on the star. Most that won't delete seem to be in the unsorted bookmark category. I have tried many times and they just won't delete. What can I do.?

When I follow the directions about deleting bookmarks by clicking on the bookmark, then clicking on the blue star and then clicking on delete bookmark, it will work with some but not all my bookmarks. I have noticed that the ones that won't work appear to be marked in unsorted bookmarks rather than bookmarks menu. I have tried many different ways to delete these bookmarks but nothing works. Some of these bookmarked pages need to be signed in and I no longer have a way to sign in or want to sign in. I just want to delete the bookmark. Please help.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
