So it's been quite a long while now that my Firefox won't display my history or actually make it pop up in the search bar (visited a new webpage for example , it won't get registered NOR pop up) . Being silly as I am , I 've checked all my settings , but none of them are causing the issue. Could anything be wrong with my cache? Oh , now after the update , my History button from the Open menu WILL display my recent history , yet when I press Show all history , only 6 websites I've visited WAAAAY back in the day are in display. Any help is appreciated , kinda wanna get the issue fixed since I lost a year and a half's worth of history :/

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
