on other browsers I can see the time and exact date of my browsing history. I cannot seem to find that on Firefox. It lists the last 7 days all together as far as I can see. I cannot tell which day I was at which site. The SORT doesn't seem to help either. Am I missing something? Can I get exact date and time from Mozilla? Thanks

Hi, try this: 3-bar menu > Library > History > Show All History (at the bottom) > Views (on toolbar) > Show Columns (select Most Recent Visit).

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you!

Hello MikeDamico,

In addition to the above :

You could just press Ctrl+Shift+H - for "today" you will of course only see the time of the most recent visit, but if you want to see e.g. sites you visited the last seven days : click on "Added" (upper right) and it will add the date.

there is no time on the most recent visit. There is nothing on the upper right that says "ADDED". There are only 3 columns: Name, Tags and Location. At the upper right there is a box with a magnifying glass icon that says SEARCH HISTORY.

Do I have an old version of Firefox? I have Firefox Quantum 67.0.3 (64 bit)

There is no choice of Show All History at the bottom. The past several months are each listed separately, and then the bottom line says Older Than 9 Months. But Most Recent Visit appeared and gave me the time. Thanks

You can right-click the column header in the Library and in other windows like the Password Manager to select what columns to show. You can click a column on the header to sort by this column and click a second time to reverse the order. For the current day you only see the time and for older visits date and time. You may have to drag columns wider or smaller to make this fit better.

That's weird .... Under that search box I have "Most Recent Visit", "Visit Count" andthe "Added" - I didn't put any of them there myself by "right-clicking", as I don't use (or even have) a mouse. Maybe right-clicking (as suggested by cor-el) works for you  ?
