Okay, I have a problem. I tried to clear my history and such through Tools -> Clear Recent History but it does nothing at all. The usual window doesn't pop up, and it has always worked before. It does nothing.

I tried removing places.sqlite and even restoring my computer to an earlier date but nothing happened. I'm quite sure that it's not caused by an other program.
