I shut down my computer and every time when I go to history upon restart it only shows today not yesterday or 2 days ago or 4 days ago etc. I have gone to tools then selected options and then privacy only there is not check box for keep settings upon shutdown on my firefox tools setting. 

    What can I do to remedy this issue?

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":

  • do not clear the "Browsing History"
