How do I access the back button history?

In previous version of Firefox I was able to right click the back button and view the history for the tab. Now right clicking does nothing. When I hover over the back button it says "Pull down for history", but pulling down with the left or right button held does nothing. Long clicking all does nothing.

How do I access the history for the tab from the back button now?

Is there an about:config I can change to revert back to the old behavior as I'd rather not have to pull down and change a muscle memory I've had for years.

That should still work Holding down the left mouse button on either back or forward button should open the drop-down list as well.

Does this button looks that it is in enabled state or is the back button grayed?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Appearance
  • do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window

You can check for problems with preferences.

Delete possible user.js and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename/remove the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in current Firefox releases.

You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
