Backing up my Firefox history
Is there a way that you can backup your Firefox history? Because I would like to save my history as a file, and I'm just curious to know if there's an option.

Only the bookmarks are saved.
Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles.{web link} I use an add-on that makes backups of my user profile, Just In Case. Unfortunately, it is not compatible with the current Firefox.
Every now and then, open the profile folder and create a copy of the current profile as is to another location on your hard drive. This way you will have a backup.
If you do this each day, you will not lose much data. This should be done with Firefox Closed.
Note: In case you need to restore from these backups, you may need to overwrite old or corrupted files.
Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
Browsing history is stored in a file called places.sqlite in your profile folder. On Windows it is located in the randomly named < .default > folder found in this directory: %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles You can copy the places.sqlite file to the new profile to get the bookmarks/history & cookies. Hope this helps
You can look at this Nirsoft utility:
Note that you can use Copy and Paste in the Bookmarks Manager (Library) to copy history items to a bookmarks folder and make history become part of a bookmarks backup.

Thank you. I will look into that.
