If i want to delete single entry from web history, i type keywords that open this entry, select it and press shift-delete. That was woking in previous versions of firefox (after I restart it). Now even after restart that deleted entries appear again. I guess this is a bug and needs to be adressed. Thanks

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
