Windows 10: Remove item from Favorites

I cannot remove items from "Favorites" in Windows 11 File Explorer. I follow the instructions R-click on the item, Select Remove From Favorites but nothing happens

:)

 

Favorites Listing with Number of Items

I am familiar with the settings menu. I am clearing some of the data like browsing history, cookies, etc.. That suggestion does not address my concern which is: On my drop down list of Favorite sites, under each Favorite listed, there is an item number
listed. For instance, I have a favorite site called MEDICAL. Right under that heading, there is "10 items" shown referring to the number of sites under the heading MEDICAL.
I want to remove the line showing the number of items from each heading in my Favorites listing. The number of items line just started appearing. It does not show up on the Favorites list on my
other two computers where I also use the Microsoft Edge browser and Windows 10.

 

Remove item from Favorites List

A while ago I asked how to remove an unwanted item from the favorites list on the Windows 10 and at that point nobody had figured it out. Well I finally know how to do it. Here is how to do it. First open up the favorites window that you want to remove.
The click on the star on the top line. A box will come down and it will say at the bottom of the box ADD/DELETE. Pick the delete button and the item will be removed from the favorites items.
