Firefox does not retain my history files, how do I retrieve them ?
I have been using Firefox for the longest time now, but lately I noticed that when I check my history files, that there are none. And no my teens did not delete them, because when I am on the computer for an extended time, and check, there are no history files, they are not registering in my browser.

Are you using Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the browser history?
Also make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history mode.
Cleanup software like CCleaner can also remove the Firefox history, so if you use such software then check the settings for the Firefox application
I have the same problem and have tried all those things. I have also tried deleting the Firefox profile and restarting. I have also tried reinstalling and not adding any addons. I have even removed Firefox registry keys and any Firefox files left by the uninstall before attempting to install it again. No matter what I do, Firefox begins to stop retaining any history. This all started when I upgraded to 4.0. It is frustrating because I have seen all over the net that others are having this problem. I backed up to the 3.6 version and that fixed the problem. After a while, I decided to go ahead and go back to 4.0 to see if the issue would stop. But it does it again!
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
