Forcefully delete bookmark from GTK file picker

Have you ever tried to add a bookmark to GTK file picker, and cannot remove it after that? I had the same problem.

GTK file picker

As you can see, I have “Storage” stuck as a bookmark and whenever I removed it, it will show up again the next time I open the dialog.

The cause

I entirely not sure. But this might caused by a wrong permission of specific file or folder.

Solution

Delete file ~/.gtk-bookmarks from your system.

~/.gtk-bookmarks

Then open the dialog, right-click on the particular bookmark and remove.

Remove ~/.gtk-bookmarks

It should work properly now, also you can add and remove bookmarks without any issue.
