Maybe if enough people ask this question it will get answered. My browsing history deletes itself on exit. All my history settings are set to save all history. I tried a custom setting, set the same way, to no avail. This all started with ver. 10. I never had this problem before.

Check your setting for Options > Privacy > "[X] Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings. If "Browsing History" is checked on the Setting panel, then un-check it.

If you are using an application like CCleaner, check its options as well.

I use Advanced System Care Pro, which will sweep privacy as an option. It is set to off. This all started happening with Firefox version 10. I'm also not the only one having this problem all of a sudden.

Yes, ASC has the privacy sweep on/off option, and there is also a list of browsers that you can turn on/off if you do sweep privacy. I unchecked the Mozilla list and it seems to have fixed the problem. Strange, that list only pertains to when the sweep option is on. Firefox and Iobit had updates at about the same time. This may be an issue with Iobit and not Firefox? In the mean time, it works. Thank you, SafeBrowser, problem solved!

So that you have a clear understanding of how ASC works and how its various settings may behave, I suggest that you post on their forum at the link that I provided.
