What file stores the download history in FF?

Cause i havent cleaned mine for over six months, and deleting ONE item in the Download manager takes around 20 secs! And pressing Clean up crashes FF Razz

Watercooled 5950X | AORUS Master X570 | Asus RTX 3090 TUF Gaming OC | 64Gb RAM | 1Tb 970 Evo Plus + 2Tb 660p | etc etc

I dont think that was a helpful reply. Did you read what he said? Pressing Clean Up crashes the Firefox browser. Unless I misunderstood, in which case I apologise.

May the NFOrce be with you always.

"Clean up" is on the Downloads window, which include a list that seems badly implemented and start laggin FF rather quickly. "Clear private data" -with "Download History" checked- won't open that window and should avoid the crash.
