After a re-start, my Firefox browser on a Dell laptop lost all history and has since also not been collecting websites visited. When opening a new tab, the shortcuts and recently visited websites are also gone and no longer being collected. My CCleaner recently updated itself to a new version but I unchecked the delete history for Firefox (which treacherously is clicked by default - I fell into that trap before). Happy to blame the new CCleaner but that would not explain why history is not being collected now - to me the fault seems to lie with Firefox instead. Another possibility that went through my mind: Is Microsoft sabotaging users of Windows 11 to force them to buy new? PS: Under "Privacy", "History", the setting is "Firefox will remember history", as it always has been and should be. But it has forgotten all previous history and it is no longer collecting any new history either!

'Browsing history: which one do I use and how can I browse TOTALLY private? I want the instructions of hot to do that if you have a way to do that.. thanks for your time

My history of sites visited is too big and when I try start firefox it loads 20 pages or more onto my computer screen and then stalls how do I stop this

Thanksi

I use ccleaner to run regular cleans on my computer. Noticed after running it today that my history wasn't deleted. I tried manual delete to see if it was a ccleaner but and still no deletion. I turned of history sync in my profile, also checked that permanent incognito mode is not turned on.

Last resort I uninstalled and re-installed (twice, once using REVO) yet all of my history is still there.

Any thoughts?

My browser, OS and drivers are fully updated.

I've deselected "Clear history when Firefox closes" 3 times already, and it keeps coming back. I don't want my browsing, and especially search and form history to be deleted, I use it every day. How do I stop this option from coming back? Or do I have to abandon my decades-long relationship with Firefox and find another, less annoying browser?

Bookmarks open in the same tab, as they should. But history choices / sites from the browser history always open in a new tab far away from where I'm at the moment.

How can I set it to open in same tab, as the bookmarks? Open in a new tab next to the current tab would also work.

I'm having an issue wherein clicking the on-screen back button in the toolbar does not immediately navigate to previous webpage that was viewed. From my recollection and in all my years of computing, I have always understood that the original purpose of a browser's back button was to return to the page, not to reverse any scroll actions. However, someone has changed this.

The problem is that the back button isn't navigating to the previous page, but rather undoes any scroll actions that were performed on the current page being viewed. Once all scrolling is undone, it's back at the the top of page again (default scroll position). Only by clicking the back button one more time will it actually go to the previous page. However, this is not the desired behavior. The desired behavior is that clicking the back button just once should be all that is required to get to the previous page, skipping any scroll actions that were performed on the current page.

I see other articles talking about what happens when you use the scroll wheel and/or mouse buttons. That is not what I am talking about here. I'm only talking about what happens when you click the graphical back button (which looks like a left arrow) on the toolbar. It's the built-in back button in Firefox.

Does anyone know how to restore the button's original functionality?

Recently I added new profile to Firefox. Since then History tab does not work. There is no pages in History tab. In settings History is enabled. This function works properly in my original profile.

On screenshot you can see that I opened at least one page, but in history there is still no pages. How I can fix it?

Problem: Cannot clear history from Firefix Started with Menu and clear recent history. Looked everyplace there was information about history. Tried removing individual entries. Ran Malwarebytes. Dell XPS 8960 with Windows 11 less than one year old. No response with any steps I take. Also, there are no error messages. I am unable to clear history no matter which tools I use. No error messages. All the suggestions I tried had no effect. Used Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox.

Oddly, I tried my older Dell Inspiron 3650, with Windows 10, and clear history works like it should. 

Used Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox. So far, all the advice goes down the same path; history, clean recent history, manage history, etc.. Tried refreshing and today I deleted Firefox app and reloaded. No improvement. Results same with Verify Integrity > Task: checkIntegrity - Unable to fix corruption, places.sqlite will be replaced on next startup > Task: checkCoherence - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: expire - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: vacuum - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: stats - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task. > Task: _refreshUI - The task queue was cleared by an error in another task.

On windows 10, I had my history setup perfectly. I had it where it saved all of my stuff all the time and I could go back and check anything on any day. Then I changed to windows 11 and now my history is a mess and I can't figuar out how to fix the problem. I am not good with computer, so make your answer SIMPLE AS POSSIABLE, please!!! Thank you.

When I shop for groceries, every single item I look at shows up in my Recent Activity. This wastes way too much space, plus I don't need it. Is there a way to restrict what shows?

For years I have clicked on the clear history, clear data and manage data on the settings page in privacy and security--directly after leaving every website, just to be sure...now nothing is happening when I click on them. FF is up to date and nothing is different (that I know of).

Please help. Thank you.

I am still running Win 7 Pro with Firefox 115.29.0esr.

In COLORS I have set the Unvisited links to Green and Visited links to Red. USE SYSTEM COLORS and UNDERLINE LINKS are both checked. OVERRIDE COLORS is set to Always.

The problem: The color change to Red for Visited links is no longer retained after closing Firefox. The fact that a link has been visited is lost.

Is this a bug, a setting problem, or is it simply because I've running obsolete versions?

Thank you in advance!
