I have Firefox latest version (153.0.1 (64-bit)) running in Windows. Both are newly installed.

Usually, if I type a new URL firefox "remembers it" and when I type it the second time, it shows in the address bar.

But now it does not. Any ideas?

I use a website often where the links on any given page change colour if I have previously visited that page referenced by that link. This was an easy way for me to keep track of which pages I have accessed before. In the past, Firefox would retain this information so that I could see where I had been even if I last visited the site several years in the past. At present, if I visited the site more than 6 months ago, I can no longer see it. How can I change the settings so that my browsing history is retained indefinitely?.

I have backups of the AppData profile folders which I'm hoping that I can restore once the setting is changed so that I can once again see my history on this website.

"backspace" key

Make it so that when you press the "backspace" key, the browser goes back to the previous page in the history, even if the settings do not allow storing history.

The RESTORE SESSIONS option is not showing under HISTORY. My computer performed a scheduled reboot before I could closed my windows but once I reopened the FIREFOX browser I could not find the RESTORE SESSIONS option so I could get my closed browser windows again.
