Firefox no longer adds pages I visited to history

When I go to a site my history no longer reflects any new site visits. I recently tried to clear history and now I have no history at all.

  • Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the Browsing History.
  • Make sure that the History is set to at least 1 day: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember visited pages for at least"
  • Make sure that you do not start Firefox in Private Browsing mode (Tools > Stop Private Browsing is grayed, see Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history)
  • To see History and Cookie settings in Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history"

You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.

Thank you; somehow I must have started Private Browsing and now that I turned it off all seems back to normal. Thanks
