I create a bookmark for e.g. www.digitec.ch. Firefox proposes me as name 'digitec online shop'. I change the name to 'Digitec' and store the bookmark. Now I drag the bookmark to 'Firefox' in the taskbar and it appears in the jumplist as 'https://www.digitec.ch/Startseite.aspx'. How can I rename this item in the jumplist to a reasonable name like 'Digitec'?

I found the solution: first drag the Bookmark to the Windows Desktop and from there to the Firefox Task in the Windows Tasklist. In this case the name of the link on the windows desktop will be taken.

Hi Werner,

Are you saying you moved it to the Bookmarks Toolbar - Display your favorite websites at the top of the Firefox window? If so, you can just right click it and choose properties to edit the link.

Hopefully this helps!

Hi Matt_G

No, I am not talking about the Bookmarks Toolbar but about the Jumplist of the Firefox Task in the Windows Tasklist:

Now I drag the bookmark to 'Firefox' in the taskbar and it appears in the jumplist as 'https://www.digitec.ch/Startseite.aspx'.

Rightklicking there does not give a rename option
