I have recently updated to 3.6.13. I have set, and rechecked, my firefox in the privacy preference area to remember my history for 90 days. I do not "automatically restart firefox in a private browsing session" or "clear history when firefox closes" ticked. Yet, when I open the history tab on the navigation bar, the page that open shows no history.

I have been able to see my history in previous formats. This is a recent occurrence perhaps related to my recent update. What can I do?

  • Make sure that the History is set to at least 1 day: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember visited pages for at least"
  • Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Private Browsing mode (Tools > Stop Private Browsing is grayed, see Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history)
  • To see History and Cookie settings in Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history"

You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.
