I deleted the history folder by mistake, the 6 moths older data. How do I recover it. It has lot of data that I need.

You need an older copy of places.sqlite to be able to recover lost (deleted) history. Note that this affects the bookmarks as well (places.sqlite stores bookmarks and history).

You can look at a utility to browse System Restore points.
