I want the sidebar of Bookmarks to stay open unless I close it.

The sidebar closes [disappears] when I move the cursor anywhere else on the screen.

That is certainly not normal behavior, I would expect that you installed an extension that added that feature to Firefox.

Quickest way to check for an extension with "sidebar" in it's name would be to bring up about:support in the location bar, the use "Find" to see if "sidebar" is found anywhere.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I am curious which extension provides that feature now-a-days, because I miss having that feature.

Maybe this extension:

Yep, that extension has a feature like that. Thanks.
