Win 7 Pro. Firefox 33.1.1 Latest version does not allow Recently Closed Tabs in History section to be restored. All options except Show all History and Clear Recent History are inactive. Show All History works fine.

Thanks. I think I resolved the problem as follows: I opened: Tools-Options-Privacy and under History, I changed to "Remember History". I then closed Firefox and re-started. At that point, the History section tabs were fully restored. I then went back to:Tools-Options-Privacy and under History changed to "Use Custom Settings for History" and under the Settings for that option I made sure that only "cookies" and "cache" were checked. After I restarted, the History tabs are still activated. I have included a .jpg file of the current mode.
