Hello,

This support article I believe is the only way to remove history. Maybe let it run over night etc.

Cheers,

If you want to delete a large amount of history then this will always take time and possibly do you when you do not need to use Firefox.

Do you have an "Older than 6 months" folder showing in the History Manager?
