Details

When a user selects "Forget About This Site" in their history, the page they are choosing to forget about can still be seen in Recently Closed Tabs. Desired effect: All reference to that site should be expunged from the browser. Steps to Reproduce: 1) Open a new tab and visit a website 2) Close the tab 3) Open your history sidebar (View >> Sidebar >> History) 4) Find the site you visited and right-click 5) Select "Forget About This Site" 6) Go to History >> Recently Closed Tabs and the entry will still be there.

Hi baku,

Was searching for a different Closed Tabs history issue, came across this instead. Just did a quick test: On Windows (FF68, Nightly) and Linux (FF68), Forget About This Site clears any entries from Recently Closed Tabs. I also tested Recently Closed Windows, which is also cleared.

I don't have a Mac to test on, but I would expect this bug has been fixed with the changes over the last five years.

Suggest closing as worksforme.

Yes, it makes sense. Thanks!
