In Chrome I can hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and it will give me an option to clear everything. How to do the same in firefox?

Ctrl+Shift+Del


That's labeled as "Clear Recent History". How recent? Does it save older History? If it Deletes ALL History, why is labeled as 'Recent'?

^That shortcut opens a pop-up window and this window has time range selector and a details button where you can select what to clear.
