How do I change my settings to make where Firefox allows me to save my history for up to two weeks?

Several months ago, before Firefox updated, I used to be able to save my history for up to three weeks, which made it really easy to find a site if I didn't bookmark it. Now, however, it seems that my history only gets saved for two days, 'Today' and 'Yesterday'. And I can't even say that, because it seems like everytime I log off Firefox, all my history current history from 'Today' and 'Yesterday' gets deleted. And before you ask, I don't have it checked where it says 'Clear history when Firefox closes' in the Options menu.

So, any sort of help would be really appreciated. It's very stressful trying to go remember the name of the site when I can easily look it up in my history.

Do you have problems with the bookmarks or history?

May be places.sqlite database file,resides in Fireofx profile folder get corrupted .

Note: if you delete places.sqlite file , you will lose all the saved history. If necessary then try to drag (copy/paste) history items to a bookmarks folder and try to export the bookmarks to an HTML file. Be sure to verify that the HTML file has the history items.

I am considering that you are not using Private mode browsing (which never stores anything history cookies etc)

If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then check the settings for the Firefox application.

Boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
