How do I get my url bar to show the websites I visited before? I did not clean my history or anything. Nothing shows anymore.

Hey! I have restarted my computer during the night and this morning, when I opened firefox, the sites I visited before were not showing anymore in my url bar. I did not reset any history or anything. After visiting them too, they don't seem to save in my url bar (they still don't show after I visited them). All my url bar is showing are "suggestions".

Please help, thanks :)

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

You can check these prefs on the about:config page and reset user set (bold) TEXT prefs via the right-click context menu to the default value.

  • browser.urlbar.autocomplete.enabled
  • browser.urlbar.maxRichResults

You can open the about:config page via the location bar.
