1) I open a new tab and a page displays (homepage, whatever), 2) I go to a new page under the same tab, 3) I go to another new page under the same tab. The Problem Is: The page in step 1) never gets recorded in the page history. I can never use the "back" arrow to get to that first page. It never shows up in the page history of that tab. I know it used to record that first page but it doesn't anymore. What's up?

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

cor-el, thanks but that did not solve the problem. I just had a pc tune up done on my computer and I'm wondering if something occurred with that. some service in the computer configuration might have been stopped and that may be causing this problem.
