My IE6 History recently stopped recording new pages visited.

Previous History is still OK going back 38 weeks, and it still makes folders for the current day; but no URLs are recorded there.

I presume the Histry cache-size must've been exceeded, and tried CHANGING registry settings to increase it.
I found three registry entries relating to History cache size, and increased all of them; but it had no effect.

I'm using Windows 98 Second Edition.



Have you tried changing some things in the Internet Option?Yes I have.
However there does not appear to be a way to change the History cache size; only the TEMPORARY internet files cache size (which is not relevant to my problem).Is there a paticular reason you want to keep history files that old? I think the default setting is 7 day's but I have mine set a 2. I would lower the day's stored, clean out the folder and see what happen's then. Try REMOVING those recent files and try to use the default setting 7 and see if that new ADDRESS will be stored on your history.I don't want to remove the files or clear the history.

I would like to preserve a full record of URL's for as LONG as possible, as I find it very useful at times. E.g. If a file on my hard-drive gets corrupted, I can use Internet History Explorer to find out where I originally downloaded it from, and replace it. Has saved my bacon several times!

Accordingly I have set my History to 999 days.
