Firefox keeps clearing my history although I have "remember history" selected. How do I stop this?

Firefox is only keeping my history for the previous day and the current day.

If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then check the settings for the Firefox application.

Make sure that you do not use Clear History to clear the Browsing History when you close Firefox.

It was CCleaner. I waited to make sure that it was the problem and it was. Thanks for the help!
