I right click on a bookmark in the toolbar to show properties. I enter a key with upper and lower characters and save it. Then I right click again to show properties and the keyword is all lower case. Then, in a few days the keyword field will again be blank. All the keyword saving has been messed up with the new version and all keywords entered in the older versions have disappeared also.

It sounds as though the lower case part is intentional. Losing the keyword completely does not sound normal.

Do you Sync your Firefox bookmarks with any other installations of Firefox?

Have you used any add-ons related to bookmarks?

Thanks for your quick reply. I don't sync with a previous version of Firefox and none of my few add-ons has anything to do with bookmarks. I used to use the bookmark properties in all previous versions for keywords that I could cut and paste. With all the upper case letters now becoming lower case, cutting and pasting is useless to me.

I have over 12 bookmarks, all with keywords in the properties field but since they all occasionally disappear now I have had to tape a list on my desk. Not a big deal by any means but I wonder what the developers have changed.

As soon as I installed version 62.0.2 (64-bit) all my keywords immediately disappeared and this stuff started happening.
