I wanted to delete a single youtube link from my history but picked "forget about this site" and now it's hiding all of youtube from my displayed history. Is there any way to reverse this?

Re: Undo "Forget about this Stie" in History?
No. Just like in real life, you can't "unforget" something or "undelete" something (e.g. unwipe a blackboard). You told the browser to forget about the site so it dutifully removed everything to do with that site. It's gone.theAxe1832 wrote: ↑2025-01-24, 19:14I wanted to delete a single youtube link from my history but picked "forget about this site" and now it's hiding all of youtube from my displayed history.

I've done this before and I believe I managed to retrieve the information (almost all of it) by restoring the places.sqlite file from the most recent backup.
I backup every day using the Win7 inbuilt tool. When I made this mistake I did lose the few entries in history since the backup was created but not ALL the entries for the site I messed up on.

Doesn't YouTube track your visited videos/history? Try your luck here:
https://www.youtube.com/feed/history
Don't know if this works without a Google account.
