Unable to delete folder containing bookmarks of web locations

Hi,

In error I copied two bookmark folders onto my desktop. So this folder contains about 20 bookmarks of web locations. I want to delete these folders but when I try to 'move them to trash' via Finder the process just hangs. Any ideas how I can get rid of the folders? I've tried to delete the bookmarks individually but the result is the same. Any thoughts welcome. I'm running macOS 10.13.6 as I have an older (2009) iMac.

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?


Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.
