Just changed my history setting to default (180 d) from 5 d. Can I get the older history back?

I just changed the history setting to the default of 180 days. It was set at 5 days. Can I get to history from before the 5 days, or is it gone forever?

If you changed the setting in Tools > Options > Privacy then your history should still be there unless you deleted it. That setting only affects what is kept in memory and not what is stored on disk in places.sqlite.

I did not use the Tools>Options>Privacy to change the history expiration. I used the about:config and changed the browser.history_expire_days and browser.history_expire_days.mirror. The Tools>Options>Privacy was 90 days when I looked at it after receiving your answer. When I look at Show All History in the History dropdown, I only get 5 days worth.
