Firefox Community Forum

As of a few updates ago, Firefox keeps adding items to the drop down menu in the address box. It used to have all the sites I went to to check out headlines, but it started adding things I hardly ever use. For instance I went ONE TIME to the "no calls" registry to register my phone number, and for a month that was in that drop down menu. Another, I have a number of tabs that are always open, like the weather and local radar, etc. A number of them are now in my drop down menu. So, somehow Firefox decides to drop items that I go to EVERY DAY, and put in other things it likes, like the no-call phone registry link. I would like a setting that doesn't allow it to decide this. Or the ability to delete items it adds and say that I don't want these things in that menu. It's fine that it keeps all the items I go to every day, but stop dropping them to add the links to tabs that are ALREADY open in my browser.

Clearing history when Firefox closes is a security issue that should be kept as clearing history manually after every log in is unnecessary which is why it was part of firefox settings, I would really appreciate less bloatware and keeping what I always used in settings. Omitting clearing history when firefox closes is a breach of security not an added security. Thank you, P.S. Please consider changes carefully before you make them or you may wind up with more of what isn't wanted or needed and less of what is wanted and needed.

Firefox drop down history shows about 85% favicon substitution for gmail entries. It is not the gmail favicon, it is a food blog I do not login to and only very occasionally read. It is a very random substitution.

Clearing cache, cookies and restarting did not eliminate the issue. All apps and browsers are fully up to date.

I only use Firefox so do not know if it happens on others. Also, it does not happen all the time, only about 85% of the time, sometimes within one session, as visible in the attached screenshot. The bottom 9 are gmail's and you can see it has chosen to substitute the gmail favicon for an unrelated food blog favicon, but the there are several gmail entries that display the correct google favicon.

It isn't a problem but it does make me feel less secure as it is a weird glitch. If there is crossover there, where else may there be identification failures? Is there any way to correct this? Thank you.

I often use browser history, but yesterday I tried "show all history" and got a complete blank. ALL history was gone. Moreover, the sites I browsed today are not being recorded in history! How can I get it to start recording my browsing again. I'm not as concerned about restoring all the history that has disappeared - but it's nice if that could be done.

Hi I noticed that some old links in my history are automatically deleted. How to configure expiration rules (if possible) in order to keep links forever, until manual deletion? I know that links can be saved in the bookmarks, but when browsing the Internet, unless bookmarking everything :(, no one knows if a link can be useful in the future.

Thanks for your help

I for got my account then I also for got the site. Search I think 6 hours age I don't know but the possible irst letter is JL I DONT KNOW jl1 to 10please help me to see all site. Search ast 5 to 10 hours ago thank you

Can you remove the really annoying History bug? whenever i have searched something from the full history and copy or open some webpage, or maybe the same domain, i dont know.... it automatically moves the Selection/last copy line upwards 1 step - so if i open 2-5 more pages, it will move the highlighted selection upwards 2-5 more lines.....

so it basically needs to bug around like that and not move my last position upwards all of the time, because i just lose track of what i have already copied before, etc....
