Deleting the history does not work

The function "delete history" does not work anymore (right mouse button "delete" / delete all). I tried everything, including Firefox remove and reinstall. Oh clean up Firefox did not help.

In "Safe Mode" I'm not at all, because the question mark does not appear at "Requests" in the menu

Something is wrong with the places.sqlite database. It stores the History and Bookmarks.

Please follow these directions.

Type about:support<enter> in the address bar.

Under the page logo on the left side, you will see Application Basics. Under this find Profile Folder. To its right press the button Show Folder. This will open your file browser to the current Firefox profile. Now Close Firefox.

Locate the places.sqlite file, and rename it by adding .old to it. Restart Firefox.

This should cause Firefox to restore the bookmarks using a backup.

Die Datenbank places.sqlite stimmt nicht. Es speichert die Historie und die Lesezeichen.

Bitte folgen Sie diesen Anweisungen.

Geben Sie about: support <enter> in die Adressleiste ein.

Unter dem Seitenlogo auf der linken Seite sehen Sie Anwendungsgrundlagen. Unter diesem Fund Profilordner. Rechts daneben den Button Show Folder. Dieser Wille öffnen Sie Ihren Dateibrowser zum aktuellen Firefox-Profil Schließen Sie jetzt Firefox.

Suchen Sie die Datei places.sqlite und benennen Sie sie durch Hinzufügen um .old dazu. Starten Sie Firefox neu.

Dies sollte dazu führen, dass Firefox die Lesezeichen mithilfe einer Sicherung wiederherstellt.

Quote from [/questions/1242737]: If I choose "Delete chronicle" in the bookmark "Chronicle" nothing happens. The chronicle since August is still there. I even reinstalled firefox.

Did you try to remove the current places.sqlite files in the profile folder like suggested above?

If "Verify Integrity" button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page cannot repair places.sqlite then remove all places.sqlite files in the Firefox profile folder. Firefox will rebuild places.sqlite and restore the bookmarks from a recent JSON backup in the bookmarkbackups folder.
