Bookmarked links folder inside another folder is not opening with middle mouse

Browser Support

Used to open many links just by middle clicking on a folder, that ain’t working anymore.
Only try to open the first folder and not other ones inside it.

Simply put: if the folder is the first one - it opens, if the folder is the second and so on it wont.

before march 5 update i could simple middle click any folder anywhere and it would open all the links inside it.

Now only by rmb and open all.

windows 10 22h2, last version of Brave.

Tested with different mouse’s same result.

Thank you for your time.

Can’t say that I’ve used this method before to open multiple bookmarks/tabs from nested folders. However, I do see that you can do this from the bookmarks bar, but not the nested folders within as @Steem describes.

I will ask whether or not this functionality was removed intentionally (I suspect not). That said, you can still right-click and open all the tabs within the folder by selecting Open all from the context menu (this works for all bookmarks folders, nested or not):

Wow, reading their posts/thread about it they seem to be digging on in, investigating.

Thanks for the update. I really love this feature and use it many times a day. The only thing to improve on it would be to allow the user to set the number of links that can be opened at once, instead of a warning pop up on the limit.
