Since the latest firefox update, to clear history now, it has Clear site and download, saved form info, and searches all together now. There is no way to uncheck saved info and searches so that does not get cleared. Will there be a fix to this? There is no way to clear the history now without clearing the saved info and searches, which I do not want to do.

Chosen solution

You can set this pref to true in about:config to revert to the old clear history dialog.

This might return in a future Firefox version.
