I choose "History", then "show all history", right click on "older then 6 month", click "delete" and nothing happens. I can delete individual pages from the history, but not the entire folders. A month ago is still worked.

Click the menu button , Chosen History,and than "Clear Recent History...". Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything" . Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active. From the 

details list, check Cache and Cookies

and uncheck everything else.

From the History menu, select Clear Recent History. ... 

   From the Time range to clear: drop-down menu, select the desired range; to clear your entire cache, select Everything.
   Next to "Details", click the down arrow to choose which elements of the history to clear; to clear your entire cache, select all items.

But I don't want to clear all the history. It may be useful to keep for a time. I used to delete the history older then 6 month, to save the hdd space. Now, it does not work. Why?
