Additional Information:

@AEDunne,
Can you please update to the latest version of the browser (v1.73.105) and tell me if the issue persists after doing so?

With Respect

I apologize for my long delay.

That is the version I have and the problem persists.

Yours Sincerely,

Alan E. Dunne

@AEDunne do you have a particularly large amount of bookmarks saved?

With Respect

More, possibly many more, than 5 000. I do not know how to get an exact count.

But as best as I remember the problem began quite suddenly, and I can still move quickly through menu -lists and bookmarks -bookmarks manager in and out of folders.

Yours Sincerely,

Alan E. Dunne
