History view changes from any of previous days (e.g. Yesterday, Lasst 7 days) to the "Today" view within a few seconds. How to stop this?

When I want to review my browsing history, maybe after losing a session, I can't keep the history view at anything but the "Today" view for more than a few seconds.

Hello Malizia.

When you are browsing your history from 7 days ago, if you access a site in that list, it will go to the history from today, since sites are placed according to their last visit.

Dear Morbus, By "more than a few seconds" I mean even when I do nothing. I'm aware of the behavior you describe and in previous versions there was a work-around for it. You could select the next history entry before the view changes.

You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
