Why should Firefox back to "never remember history" whenever I go to "remember history"?

I've seen many questions similar to this problem, but they are all about the custom settings and none of them does not seem to work for me.

I want to have Firefox value "Remember history" and to stay like that, but when I close Firefox, the next time I open that the setting has been restored "never remember history" and what I had done at the previous session has been lost, including my cookies and log-ins.

I am currently using the latest version of Firefox, and I'm running on Windows Vista. Everything worked fine until a few days after Adobe Flash of overload. Any help will be appreciated.

  • Firefox guard handed himself to "never remember history" even if I say "use the custom settings for history".

    Firefox seemed to work fine until yesterday. When I used Firefox yesterday, my home page was changed to Firefox start page and did not open my tabs from the day before. I went to settings and changed the homepage back to google.com and told to "use the custom settings for history". I closed Firefox and opened it again and my homepage was google.com, as I put it, but it was back to "never remember history". I tried several times, yesterday and today, but Firefox keeps affecting himself never "remember history".

    Choose the 'use the settings customized for history' parameter is not make changes to the parameters of the history and cookies.

    Firefox displays the "use the custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one story and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.

    If all the history settings are default, custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."

    Don't remember history"means that private browsing is active and"Always use private browsing mode"Gets a check mark.

  • Firefox will never return history immediately after I said to use personalized story.

    Firefox will not keep my setting of "personal history". I said to use personalized story. I close the window options, and even if I do not do anything, when I open the window options yet, Firefox came back to "never remember history". I tried to delete cookie and preference files. I tried to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. I tried to delete the file profile.js or whatever it is called. I tried all the solutions I found online and nothing works.

    Thank you for your response. I understand that made the need for changes or he's back by default. I had brought a change. I does not solve the problem on my own with some tinkering, however. I changed something different, then it changed back and makes somehow the settings would you like.

  • Life using private > never remember history, breaks with the disqus twits

    Latest version Firefox 42.0 broke it. Disqus comments people link Twitter messages inside. The image of these messages no longer appear. There is just an empty space. I found I could do work again going in Firefox Privacy settings and turning "remember history" back on. When I never use 'remember history' twitter 'image' is not climbed. Here is an example.

    http://www.17-seconds.com/2015/11/2015-11-08-Quizas.HTML#comment-2348980476

    It is used to display the twitter even with "never remember history" selected.

    Hi nschm873, what you see is probably the new tracking feature of protection in incognito in action.
    However, since this is completely optional, you can easily disable it in the section the Panel privacy options: disable the Tracking protection

  • stretch image in html background working if "never remember history" is selected

    I have a problem that did not exist in previous versions of mozilla. I found the problem after you have installed the latest version and after setting ever "remember history" of firefox

    The problem is related to the CSS code to stretch a background image to fit the screen. The background image does not stretch if "never remember history" is NOT defined. That part of the image is displayed and the rest of the background is black. I noticed first with my website www.missionbayhighalumni.com and subsequently found that the same problem also occurred with this site:
    http://www.htmlite.com/faq022.php or http://www.htmlite.com/faqEX004b.html

    I created several test cases with very simple code, all had the problem. The background image extend tests of code all work for other browsers and even firefox if "never remember history" is not selected. It also seems to be intermittent.

    Looking very good for me and all containers have a height: 100%, which is also OK.

    You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

    Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from that domain you don't want to lose then check that back up these data or make a comment.

    You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

    It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

  • Why FIREFOX will not save my HISTORY of parameters of USE CUSTOM settings?

    It is very very annoying. I'm ready to throw the bucket of bit of this program.
    I use it to access facebook and play farmville. I need to not FORGET things so that whenever I load farm town should not have their server stuff...

    Whenever I open fire fox and go to the who's who and load farmville I get a message that says I can load faster if I allow them to store data on my computer...

    I go into the settings of firefox and find that my history preferences won't save 'USE the PERSONALIZED SETTINGS.

    I need to change every time. I have the 32-bit and 64-bit of Nightly (beta version) on my computer.
    I completely removed those two, restarted windows 7, rebooted again, re-installed fire fox and it STILL happens...

    Why? I'll be darn if I use Solution Explorer, but at least it will SAVE the settings and gets their damn!

    Hello

    See the article How to fix preferences that will not save.

    Make sure you have not a user.js or mozilla.cfg file set your preferences each time you restart Firefox.

    Unrelated to the question: you have multiple Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in is installed - some navigation problems may be experienced with several versions of the same plugin. Uninstall older versions.

  • Why is Firefox always update my browser when it is configured to never updated?

    Three months if you are using Firefox version 15.01 I asked the same question (which is still published here on Firefox support at > > https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/933437?esab=a & s = why + does + firefox + update + my + browser & r = 7 & as = s < <) I was wondering why my browser has been updated despite being configured to never update and told me.

    • by Tylerdowner

    All 15 Firefox are beta right now. The Stable of Firefox version (now) is Firefox 14.0.1. Go to www.getfirefox.comand download the final version of Firefox it. Uninstall the beta version and then install the downloaded.* version you

    I've apologized for my ignorance and passed to the most recent stable version 16.01 and faithful to the word of Firefox Support, did not have my browser updated since... last few days when I first noticed the browser has been configured to be updated. I was overwhelmed by this discovery, but let it go, leaving some one-time glitch. But when I logged in again, the configuration ever update that I put my Firefox version 16.01 was still once configured to have set browser to date.

    I'm logged on and outside many times since and every time despite having set to never to be updated was in a position to update.

    So my question is, despite the use of the stable version of 16.01, how can I stop Firefox update my browser and even more annoying, how I've let him walk back after that I have disable the browser up-to-date?

    I love Firefox too never give it up, don't like Chrome, certainly not, IE what version
    a Firefox user since 2005.

    Any help, assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated.
