Under the "History" tab, there is a sub-tab designated "Recently Closed Tabs". How do you delete those? It is easy to delete "History", but the items in the "Recently Closed Tabs" remain. How do you get rid of everything? Thanks!

You can (temporarily) set the pref browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo to 0 to clear the "Recently Closed Tabs" list.

If you want to re-use the "Recently Closed Tabs" feature (Undo Closed Tabs) then you can reset the pref browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo to the default value via the right-click context menu.
