Firefox can't "clear private data".

I don't have Firefox set to automatically clear private data, I usually just deleted around the end of every week, but this week I noticed I couldn't delete it, if I try, Firefox crashes and says it cannot delete history.

I have tried the short cut key "shift+alt+delete", I even tried to set it to automatic clear data whenever I close the window, but every time I would leave firefox it would crash and fail to clear any data at all.

I looked it up on google, couldn't find anything though, anyone know what's up or have had this happen to them?

Don't all jump up at once!

Try re-installing firefox

Wouldn't I loose everything I have book marked? I'd rather just keep all my history.

I've been having a lot of trouble with firefox lately. It freezes or crashes on me for no reason.

sorry I can't help.

You can backup the bookmark to a file, look under Organise Bookmark, top right of the window that pops up

Ok, I'll try it out. Thankyou

No probs

What version of Firefox do you have installed?

You have to click on Tools then Error Console. There you can see what might be a specific cause for your problem, then google it.

Have you tried Firefox Forum to see if your problem has happened to others and possibly find an answer in there??

Try deleting system32
at least then you wont have any porn or wtvr in your history to worry about
only joking

Use disk cleanup. That should get rid of all the net stuff.

No, it doesn't have any errors, I have sent a report out a couple times though. No, didn't try Firefox forum, I'll check it.




Nah, no porn in my user history that I have to worry about.

This is very good advice and possibly a defrag would be in order also. Just clean your comp right up...

I've been getting that a lot with Firefox lately too.

I use opera mostly now.
i prefer it because its shiny and seemingly faster
