Is there a way to search the content of one bookmarks folder so I can manage them better?

Using the search feature in "bookmarks" searches then entire bookmarks folder. In order to manage my bookmarks, I would like to be able to search within the folder that is active and move items to different folder. At present, when you move bookmarks to another folder they continue to appear in the search window. It would be great if it functioned more like the search feature in MS Windows

Hi, there is a couple here that I do not know if will be useful or not : copy/paste search bookmarks to the URL Search Bar. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

That used to be possible in a long past, but I don't think that this is possible in current releases.
