Only updates bookmark (note: singular), if it is already open and is the focused tab. Deecription is not clear on the extension limitations.

Version 1.8.2 Does not work. Missing menu to right-click. I removed add-on several times and add / install again, but it dose not show at all. Update: I'm also using Firefox 130 64-bit. Last night "Update Bookmark V 1.8.2" was not working, but after uninstall and install add-on again it works fine now. Thank You
