I have the retain browsing history value set to 40 days, but regardless of what steps I take, the maximum number of days that my history is retained is 7. The tabs shown in the history are "Today", "Yesterday", and "Last 7 days".

Thanks!

You can look at these prefs on the about:config page to make sure that you keep history.
