The browser stopped saving history after October 26th. Could it be a broken update came out at this time?

@trajic 105.0.4970.29

same $hit here...
It started suddenly while browsing (I don't think it was after some update) it started with the "go back (to the previous page)" arrow not working anymore (as if there haven't been any previous pages - it's not in bold). Searched all settings, found nothing relevent, cleared history, cookies, etc, rebooted,, with no result. When I click on history, everything is blank there now, even though I opened several pages from speed dial....
I even tried to update to the most latest versionl....(it did update, yet to no avail)

The only solution I've found was to 1) exit Opera 2) delete the History file in the profile folder 3) restart Opera

Since then History works again.

I can only assume that somehow the history file became corrupted, it didn't have actual entries inside before deleting (checked with a hex viewer).

@trajic ...quick reply (and thanks), but it seems that I am the,,,"trajic" one: I had installed (some weeks ago) an app that erases history/does not allow any new entries on one click and forgot about it. Seems that I accidentally clicked on it's "button" and did not notice (I didn't even remember I had something like that there). Fortunately I saw some post while googling for a solution to my issue, that proposed disabling all extensions, and when I went to the extensions page I saw it there being enabled and obviously preventing Opera from recording history entries....
Feeling like an a$$ I immediately came back here to delete my post, and saw your quick answer, so in second thought, I'll leave it there in case some other a$$ suffers from something similar and my experience will at least help him....
