remove history

I use windows 8. In the HISTORY when I click on today + DELETE, nothing does. How can I remove a link?

When you view your history:

  • Sidebar Firefox history (Ctrl + h)
  • Library of Firefox (Ctrl + Shift + h) dialog box

In these two views, if you right-click any input, you should see "delete this Page".

If you want to delete more than one page, use the Library dialog box, select the ones you want to delete (for example, hold down the Ctrl key while you click on each one you want to add to the Group), right click on one of the selected items, then use "delete this Page".

Beware of "Forget about this site": that performs an exhaustive search of the history of this site, all cookies, all the bookmarks, all stored for it, which can freeze Firefox for a while and probably more than you need.

  • Password required to remove history or cookies

    My kids are visiting sites and entering passwords and the credential to these sites and I need to keep all information until I have him visit. I can do any password removal required? I need the site, the ID and the password for this site.

    I think that the best thing to do would be to create a master password. Who will then have to be entered to access the existing passwords in Tools | Options | Security and it will also connect to sites that require authentication.

    To secure your passwords outside of the browser, install Keypass which is an opensource password generator/Manager: http://keepass.info/

  • How can I remove old history but keep recent history?

    There is an easy way to clear recent history in Firefox 3.6.4. But even if I set Firefox to remember the sites visited during "at least" 30 days, he remembers them for months and even years. I would like to have, automatically, if possible, purge history older than some set interval. Lacking, I would like a way to manually remove history prior to a date. Is there a way to do this? I search the forums and the Add-ons and came empty.

  • Clear the history of 'back/forward' to a pinned tab?

    Hi all

    A few years ago "delicene" posted this question (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/847382) and 'cor - el' posted a useful answer, however, Firefox has changed a lot since this was posted and I couldn't work it. Does anyone know how to achieve the same thing today.

    Thank you very much

    Chris

    That the code should still work in the Console browser (Firefox/tools > Web Developer) which replaced the error console.

    This will clear the history tab for all tabs and windows and not for a specific tab.
    Also data on closed tabs and windows are removed (history > recently closed Tabs/Windows section).

  • Deactivation of the results "Do not forget history" in the download library malfunction.

    I had turned off the historic "Remember" option, and when I download anything it is not get listed in the library "downloads". It is downloaded in the background, but I am not able to see its progress. When I enable the option remember history, get the list of current downloads. I use firefox 26.0

    If you don't remember the story, then you enter private browsing mode and you do not keep so download history.

    Firefox handles downloads in the downloads folder in the library (history > show history)

    • Downloads are treated as elements of history: compensation removes history included download the elements and vice verse.
    • When the downloads are in progress you see a download button animation on the toolbar for Navigation showing an estimate of the remaining time
    • The download button gets a green highlight all completed once download to make you aware that there are new downloads.
    • Suspend and resume are in the context menu of an item.

    Purpose: download page (show all downloads) displays the downloads in private browsing mode, but you can't keep them in the downloads folder in the library.

  • Restore the Session bug - fails after erasing history

    This happens sometimes in the past, but after the latest update of Firefox, it happens almost everytime. When I close the browser, I want to clear the history first. Also, before you remove history, I open a new empty tab and close tab old, just to make sure the history is cleared. So, the next time I start up the browser, I get this message not being able to restore the session, one that starts with "well, it's embarrassing. Firefox has struggle to recover your windows and tabs. »

    Same behavior as in this other thread, but I guess I'm supposed to start a new thread.
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/959257

    I didn't know there is a function 'clear history of Firefox closing', I just do everything manually.

    What is the start setting?

    • Tools > Options > general > startup: 'when Firefox starts '.

    You manually close the story or do you currently use 'clear history of Firefox closing?

    Use "Firefox > output" (Windows: Firefox/file > quit;) Mac: Firefox > quit Firefox. Linux: Firefox/file > exit) to close Firefox if you are currently doing by clicking on the X close in the title bar of Firefox.

    The 'well, it's embarrassing... "message means that Firefox did not close properly the last time and had possibly crashed.
