PM 28.2.1 history, etc. will not clear from menu
With Pale Moon 28.2.1 for Mac, History Menu > Clear Recent History does not clear the history. The preference setting to clear history when the browser closes does work, but I prefer to use the History menu.

Silly me, I did not think to try Safe Mode. It was BetterPrivacy preventing that clearing. I had to change one setting in its preferences. I cleared the checkbox for "Prevent the Firefox 'Clear Recent History' functions from handling LSOs as usual cookies", and now history clearing is back to normal.

That's odd, because the bug is still there.Goodydino wrote:Silly me, I did not think to try Safe Mode. It was BetterPrivacy preventing that clearing. I had to change one setting in its preferences.

They must be two separate things.
I'll allow I have seen the same as Goodydino. (on PM 28.*, PM 27.*, W7 x86)
That setting in BetterPrivacy v1.77 (not in v1.68) does interfere with clearing recent history (and other types of data on demand).
I could see it in the UI, e.g. in the History menu, panel or sidebar:
When that BetterPrivacy setting is disabled, "Clearing Recent History" (Ctrl+Shift+Del) makes the history entries disappear (for me).
But if the setting is enabled the entries are unaffected, they just sit there (for me).
