up until this latest version you could delete your search history with a simple right click. This option no longer exists and there is no easily found way to delete "Search History" where did it go? will it be returned? is Search History no longer delete able?

Hello. I'm not sure if this is the correct place to bring up my concern. So, I apologize in advance if it's not.

I volunteer with a domestic violence organization. The group's website (180NJ.org) has a "panic button" function where a DV victim could bail out instantly if their abuser confronts them. When you hit the "Safety Exit" button, it changes the page to weather.com and Google comes up in a new tab. This is so an abuser can't see what the victim was looking at, for the victim's safety. When using Chrome and Edge, the DV site is removed from the History. When using Firefox, it is not removed from the History. I've brought this to the attention of the organization's IT people and was told that this is probably due to differences in the browsers themselves.

I'm not an IT person myself and have no idea what's involved in all of this. But, I just wanted to bring it to your attention, in case it's something you can work out. Thank you.

when i right click my search bar on the top of the page i cant find the button to delete my search history anymore when it was there like yesterday. is my computer breaking or something??? help

I've been having this strange behaviour in Firefox Nightly on Android, where the "Delete browsing data on Quit" setting, whether it is ticked or not, automatically closes open tabs. This used to not be a thing, and I wish for some clarification if this was supposed to do this from the start or not.

My settings under the "Delete browsing data on quit", which is of course turned on: Ticked: Browsing data, Cached images and files, Downloads Unticked: Open tabs, Cookies and site data, Site permissions

Tabs get closed, otherwise works as on tin.

Hi I noticed that some old links in my history are automatically deleted. How to configure expiration rules (if possible) in order to keep links forever, until manual deletion? I know that links can be saved in the bookmarks, but when browsing the Internet, unless bookmarking everything :(, no one knows if a link can be useful in the future.

Thanks for your help

Can you remove the really annoying History bug? whenever i have searched something from the full history and copy or open some webpage, or maybe the same domain, i dont know.... it automatically moves the Selection/last copy line upwards 1 step - so if i open 2-5 more pages, it will move the highlighted selection upwards 2-5 more lines.....

so it basically needs to bug around like that and not move my last position upwards all of the time, because i just lose track of what i have already copied before, etc....

The Mozilla help file on this topic says that all I need to do is open the me menu (ie three lines at the bottom right), then select History. Unfortunately, there is no entry for History in the menu list.

As of a few updates ago, Firefox keeps adding items to the drop down menu in the address box. It used to have all the sites I went to to check out headlines, but it started adding things I hardly ever use. For instance I went ONE TIME to the "no calls" registry to register my phone number, and for a month that was in that drop down menu. Another, I have a number of tabs that are always open, like the weather and local radar, etc. A number of them are now in my drop down menu. So, somehow Firefox decides to drop items that I go to EVERY DAY, and put in other things it likes, like the no-call phone registry link. I would like a setting that doesn't allow it to decide this. Or the ability to delete items it adds and say that I don't want these things in that menu. It's fine that it keeps all the items I go to every day, but stop dropping them to add the links to tabs that are ALREADY open in my browser.

I often use browser history, but yesterday I tried "show all history" and got a complete blank. ALL history was gone. Moreover, the sites I browsed today are not being recorded in history! How can I get it to start recording my browsing again. I'm not as concerned about restoring all the history that has disappeared - but it's nice if that could be done.
