 I've discovered that I've got 10 empty bookmarks.

 Although they display a title, when you check the properties, you get a window
with 6/7 blank fields:  Name, Location, Feed Location, Site Location, Keyword,
Description.  The seventh field is a displayed is a folder labeled Create In. 
None of these fields can be edited/saved, nor can the bookmarks be deleted. 
Four of the empty bookmarks are contained in folders.  The folders can't be
deleted either.

  My suspicion is that these are damaged sqlite records, but I have no way of
verifying that.

can you attach a screenshot of the properties?
did you try in safe-mode to exclude extension-issues?

Attachment: screen capture of properties of bad bookmark

In response to query from xtc4uall, I've attached a screen capture of the properties box of one of the bad bookmarks.  This bookmark appears as:  CHANCELLORSVILLE, VIRGINIA although I don't believe I ever had a bookmark with that label.  Also tried safe mode to see if that affected any change.  It didn't
