I am having trouble exporting my bookmarks to a html file. How do I do this?

Question

I tried to follow the instructions on the regular Firefox site.
But I can't find a way -- as the toolbar is displayed on my screen -- to trigger the "export bookmarks" prompt (as described in the conventional instructions for doing this?)
Is there any other way? I remember not having any problem at all in the original version of Firefox. But that was a long time ago.

Hi,
To view the regular menu bar temporarily, press '''Alt''' or '''F10'''. To make it permanent '''View''' ('''Alt''' + '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' > '''Menu Bar''' or right-click on '''+''' after the last tab and enable (tick) '''Menu Bar'''.
To export, please try this: '''Bookmarks''' ('''Alt''' + '''B''') > '''Show All Bookmarks''' or press '''Ctrl''' + '''Shift''' + '''B''' to open it directly, click '''Import and Backu'''p on the top and '''Export Bookmarks to HTML...'''
