Can't sort bookmarks; they're divided into two groups

I'm trying to sort the bookmarks in the Bookmarks Menu by name. They seem to be divided into two groups with no delimitation between them. The first group ends with 'Windows'; the second group starts with "Essay Ideas". In the list in the Bookmarks Menu, 'Essay Ideas' comes right after "Windows". Right-clicking on Bookmarks Menu and choosing Sort by Name doesn't correct this.

Chosen solution

Are there any separators between those two groups?

Can you drag those bookmarks manually in the order that you want them?

The problem was that there was a separator in the list of all bookmarks, and it showed up only in the right window of "Show All Bookmarks", not the left window. So I didn't see it. Removing the separator solved the problem.
