How do I clear my Mozilla Firefox browser history?

As you browse the Internet, most web page data is cached locally on your computer to help pages load faster and reduces the amount of data you need to transfer over your Internet connection.

To help keep your browsing history private, and to free up disk space on your computer, you can clear your local browsing history. Select your Internet browser from the following list to get started.

Note: Once the history is deleted on your computer, you will not be able to recover it.

Enter the Site URL with the HTTP Protocol

A simple fix that may work is to open the website with HTTP instead. All that’s required is to the replace https:// at the beginning of the URL with http://. Open a blank tab and then input the website’s URL again starting with http:// instead.

 Open Firefox in Safe Mode

Firefox, like Windows, has a Safe Mode you can open the browser in. This can help fix various Mozilla Firefox browser errors, including the “ssl_error_rx_record_too_long” error. Safe Mode will temporarily switch off your add-ons and hardware acceleration and revert Firefox to its default theme. Like this, you might be able to open a website that wasn’t otherwise opening in Firefox.

1. First, click Open menu and select Help.
2. Then, you can select the Restart with Add-ons Disabled option. 
   
3. Press the Restart button to confirm the selected option.
4. Press the Start in Safe Mode button.
5. Now try to connect to the website again.

Mozilla Firefox Other Bookmarks vs Bookmark Menu

How can I avoid this issue and change the default from "Other Bookmarks" back to "Bookmark Menu"?

Since Mozilla forced another unasked for "improvement" down user's throats, new bookmarks are now stored in Other Bookmarks by default.

This has turned out to be a massive nuisance if you add a new bookmark and forget to also click to change to store Bookmark Menu. You will not find your bookmark again for a while. And as if that were not stupid enough, it is a real insult if you also want to use that new Bookmark in a New Folder, as there is no way to place that new folder in the Bookmark Menu.

Follow these simple steps to resolve your query:

Allows you to choose the default bookmark location folder and quickly bookmark pages  via a dedicated icon.

Features

This feature only affect bookmarks added through the built-in Firefox bookmark icon or shortcut (Ctrl+D), or through the context menu.

You can:

• Select where the new bookmarks will be added
• Choose to add the new bookmarks to the top or the bottom of the selected folder
• Select where the new folders of "Bookmark All Tabs..." will be added
• Choose to add the new "Bookmark All Tabs..." folders to the top or the bottom of the selected folder

Quick bookmark icon:
This feature will add a quick bookmark icon in the address bar, to (un)bookmark a page with only one click.
The icon is a round star icon in the address bar.
If the current page is bookmarked, the icon color will change to red.

You can:

• Enable the quick bookmark shortcut (Alt+Shift+D)
• Select where the new bookmarks will be added
• Choose to add the new bookmarks to the top or the bottom of the selected folder
• Choose to show the page as bookmarked (i.e. the icon color changes) if the bookmark is in the folder you selected

Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet

A personal firewall could be a security program that oversees all of your computer's connections to the net. it should be enclosed as a part of an online security suite, or it should be a free-standing program. Most personal firewalls can deny web access to any program, or a replacement version of any program, unless you have got specifically allowed access. This text can assist you notice info concerning configuring your firewall to figure with Firefox.

In some cases, disabling an online security program or firewall doesn't stop all of its components from being active. A program that reports that it's disabled should still be able to block Firefox.

Find out which firewall is installed

If you know which firewall or Internet security suite you are running, skip to the next section.

Depending on your Windows version, do the following:

• Windows 10: Find it in Windows Control Panel, Security and Maintenance under the Security section.

• Windows XP SP2 and SP3/Vista: Find it under the Firewall section in Windows Security Center. For more information, see Using Windows Security Center.

If you can't still detect your firewall with the above steps, try to run Enum Process (not created by Mozilla) that is an application that detects many common firewalls:

2. After downloading, double-click EnumProcess.exe.
3. Select Run.
4. In the drop-down menu to the right, select Simple.
