How to access an old history file?

My history wasn't working and I used a tip i saw on the forum to get it back, which was to rename the History filed in the profile directory. I named it History1 so that GC would make a new history file, then I renamed the new file to History2 and changed History1 back to History (its original state).

Opera still won't read my original History file, which has all my history since 2021 and I need it to recover tabs from my last session that got deleted. This is the 2nd time that GX has crashed and deleted all my tabs and its honestly getting annoying, the browser really does feel like it's held together with spaghetti code sometimes.

@klentaku Chromium has a 90 days limit for history, so even if you could use the file, it would have only the last three months of history.
