This starts getting confusing :crazy: Really don't understand what exactly you want.
1. you cannot delete the Bookmarks toolbar and I have no idea when it was ever possible to do that. The only thing you can do is disable it, if you don't want it. To disable it further you would need an addon such as Menu Wizard or some userChrome.css, that wouldn't actually remove it but make it invisible.
2. you can delete every entry in the bookmarks toolbar from the library (edit bookmarks) or from the bookmarks menu.

If the problem is that widespread for you, it sounds to me like it's something that is commonly used on all your systems. Please try and find a commonality between all affected browsers/OSes in your care. Is there something you always do to a browser installation or OS installation that is not default?

The view toolbars bookmark toolbars does not work!
Note that Firefox 31.2 in Mageia 3 and Windows suffers the problem
All the versions of FF from 1 on Win XP it was problem to delete the bookmarks toolbar .This was one of the the reasons
I liked PM so much.Prior to PM25 you could delete the bookmarks easy in show all bookmarks of the bookmarks menu.
What to do now??

Repeating what you said before won't help.
Please check my previous post on this thread.

Are you saying that you have never had this problem before?
Please check it now.
What happens when you untick the view/toolbars/bookmarkstoolbar?

If I untick "bookmarks toolbar" in View or the AppMenu, it hides the bookmarks toolbar. Ticking it again shows it.
This is basic functionality that has always worked on all OSes I have run Pale Moon in. So no, I have never run into your problem, neither in Pale Moon nor previously in Firefox.

How very very odd!!
I have had this problem forever even at work.
The only way that i have found to fix it is to modify userchrome.css.
It worked well in Win XP,but in 64bit W7 and ALL types of Linux I have used it does not keep the userchrome in the same place
and it does not work.
I will try menu wizard and see if that works.
