I read in the comments on another page that all you had to do was RIGHT click on the favorite or bookmark you want to delete and you could do that. I right clicked on one and DELETE is NOT an option. I am using Win 11 on my desktop and would appreciate a resolution to this issue. Thanks!
HOW TO DELETE FAVORITES IN DUCKDUCKGO

Right click on any bookmark and at the very bottom should be the option to manage bookmarks, click it. From there you should be able to delete whatever you want. I'm not at home currently or i could post screenshots. It's definitely not as easy as other browsers.
Thanks for the reply BUT that does not work. When I right click on it these are the options: Open link in a new tab; open link in a new window; save link as; copy link; and inspect . . . . no delete, no manage!!!
Ok, I just got home. Here is how you do it. If you have bookmarks on the bookmark bar which I do, you can just right click and click on delete. If you have them in the actual bookmarks section, then click on bookmarks in the menu then click on open bookmark panel. In there, you can right click and click on delete. I don't know why it won't allow you to actually do it when clicking on bookmarks. But like I said I can right click on them and delete if they are on the bookmark bar.
Mine are listed one after another on the left side of my desktop screen on it's own page. No amount of clicking gives me an option to delete. If I don't have this resolved by days end I will leave quack quack and use Foxfire as my browser. Thanks for responding.
I have the same problem with duckduckgo. I understand what should happen, as it is pretty much the same process as removing a bookmark from my list, however, the favorites that are there, and using Windows 11, there are no 3 dots, no delete options. I even went to DDG settings and looked there, but there is nothing that covers, or addresses this issue. I went to the page in I am trying delete and used the option to "delete" the url when it was open, but that is just a temp solution as it does not delete it from my favorites tab.
Slightly frustrating, yeah.

I'm not sure why you guys are having such a problem with deleting bookmarks. Here are some screenshots I took of mine and it works both ways.
first way is by opening the bookmark menu and doing it from there.
Next way is to actually just right click and click on delete from the bookmark bar.
Now if your bookmarks don't look like this then there is something wrong with your pc. I don't even use duck duck go but have it installed for testing purposes.
