How to clear "recent locations" in Bookmarks
Is there any way to clear the list of previously used locations in the "Add to Bookmarks" applet? Mine have been "frozen" for 4-5 YEARS. In the attached screencap, the entire bottom half of the list is useless - I haven't used "Food Idiots", "Downloads", "MP3" and "Stuff" folders in years.
It's annoying because I use bookmarks almost exclusively for saving sessions (Select All Tabs > Bookmark Tabs), but every time I have to manually select the "Sessions" folder. In fact, when I took the attached screencap I'd just finished saving 11 windows to the Sessions folder... and had to manually select them every time!
Thanks!

You can try to run this code in the Browser Console:
await PlacesUtils.metadata.set(PlacesUIUtils.LAST_USED_FOLDERS_META_KEY,[]);
Note that there is a pref that defaults to 7 to set the number of entries to show in this list of recently used folders.
- about:config => browser.bookmarks.editDialog.maxRecentFolders = 7

That worked! THANK YOU!
