Firefox only saves today's and yesterday's history, how do I fix this?
I have already tried resetting Firefox and I my history showed today, yesterday, and past seven days temporarily. However, it reverted back to showing only today's and yesterdays history. I have "remember history" for my settings and just to be safe I have unchecked delete everything when Firefox closes. I have add ons to the check sq.lite so that is not the problem. I'd really like to know what's causing this so I don't have reset Firefox again unless its necessary. Thanks in advance and I appreciate the help.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See "Creating a profile":

Thanks for the help is there anything I should look for? I don't want to start deleting things necessarily.
- unnecessarily
Backup your Data's and try it.
So I created a new profile and copied my data to it. Hopefully, I'll see my history tomorrow. Or is there another step I should take?
Make sure, your not clearing the cookies, cache and history.
If your using 3rd party to clean your temp files in windows, uncheck the firefox.
Tools like ccleaner etc
Thanks I moved everything to a new profile. So far so good.
If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then check the settings for the Firefox application.
