Cannot clear history

more options

Cannot clear browsing history. Delete page does not work. Clear recent history does not work.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but I think it automatically imported everything which was not desirable in this case.

Do not have account or sync so it is not pulling from either of those places

You aren't using Private Browsing mode?

You can create a new profile as a quick test to see if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works, you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.

Hello

Thanks for the reply. However,

Private browsing would not help since I am trying to clear the browsing history for sites I have already been to outside of private browsing.

This problem appeared in the last few days only. prior to that right clicking and hitting delete page in the history manager would simply delete any site selected in history. Now it has no effect.

I am not signed into a profile. There isn't one set up so any data should be stored locally. I believe it should not need to add a new profile to remove site history

It sounds frustrating to deal with persistent browsing history issues! If uninstalling and reinstalling didn’t help, you might want to try clearing the cache or looking for any hidden settings that could be affecting the history. Sometimes, there are additional steps needed for complete removal. If the problem continues, reaching out to the support team of the browser could provide some insight or a solution. Hope you get it sorted out soon!
