I have no history. I can't go back to the previous page. How do I get my history and "previous" button back?

When you start Firefox and you don't have any webpages in the History Menu, it means your history was cleared when you previously exit Firefox.

Open Firefox -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Privacy section -> History section -> Firefox will: select "Use custom settings for history" -> place Checkmarks on all Options EXCEPT Last Option -> REMOVE Checkmark from Last Option (Clear history when Firefox closes)

Press OK and check things out.
