Why can't I delete a single specific entry/tab from the "recently closed" saved history log?

You can't remove individual items in the recently closed tabs list, not on android and not on desktop. You can clear the full list by temporarily setting this pref to '0' (zero) on the about:config page. You can reset the pref to re-enable this feature.

  • browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo => 0 (default is 10)
