Hey all! For some reason, a few weeks ago, my IE stopped displaying any
record of webpages that I have viewed in the history section of the browser.
It won't display by date or anything; the only way that I can view previous
webpages is with the "Most Visited" option. Does anyone know what may be
causing this issue and, if so, what I could do to fix it? It's getting
annoying not having a record of sites that I've visited.
 
Hi,
History problems can be caused by the ActiveX Control filters in McAfee
AntiVirus. If you disable the "Active X Controls" filter under the Internet
Filters in VirusScan the IE History should work properly.

Or... Your History folder may be damaged.
Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm will delete the
History folder and a new one will be created when you restart.

Or the History folder can be deleted manually:

Hope this helps,

Unfortunately, none of the solutions that you suggested worked. Does anyone
have any other ideas as to what could be causing my IE history to just
completely not work?
