We do expire less useful links after 60 days, while other visits expire when the database reaches its limit. It is absolutely necessary for us to expire visits, because otherwise the database would grow infinitely, causing serious performance problems.
So my question is, what would be an acceptable expiration limit for you, and why?

note, may be a dupe of bug 1324960
Ciao Marco, non so se sei italiano. Io ti dico che è da luglio anzi dal 2017 che sto impazzendo su questa cosa e per me che ho 4 giga di ram ho sempre avuto il problema addirittura con seamonkey che senza autorizzazione venivano eliminate pagine con link grandi o di cose che avevo scaricato. Non mi piace questa cosa se devo dare unna mia opinione quindi avrei interesse di cambiarla con voi. Ho anche provato ad usare max_pages da luglio dell'anno scorso per risolvere il problema in about:config leggendo nelle domande ma non è mai successo nulla. Io per questo nell'altro bug chiedo aiuto per voler ripristinare la cronologia che ho usato pure nelle nuove versioni o senò fate qualcosa!

It is not possible to change the 60 days downloads expiration limit through prefs, it's hard coded. For this I'm asking what would satisfy your requirement, considered we have to do visits expiration for performance reasons. Would 90 days be ok, or still bad because it's still a limit?
Al momento non è possibile cambiare il numero di giorni (60) dopo i quali i download sono rimossi. Per questo ti chiedo quale sarebbe un soluzione accettabile a tuo parere, considerato che siamo obbligati a rimuovere queste visite per question di performance. 90 giorni sarebbero una soluzione o solo una panacea temporanea?
Se vuoi discusterne In italiano puoi scrivermi via e-mail, il bug tracker è Inglese e dovrebbe restare tale, per consentirne una maggior fruizione da parte di tutti, e la massima trasparenza.
But, for a custom version that I'd like I like like was in mozilla 48 that I decide when I want delete links or downloads etc. for public versions leave in 60 days or max 90 or 120 days this is a suggestion! For help I has got visual studio because I need a opensource program accessible with nvda to create an exe for example to use a modifie my mozilla or You can if you want help me to solve problems because I note that You Marco are a collaborator or helper of code of mozilla! yes? For other bug now I go to answer.

There is no "official" custom version, all the Firefox builds are public and in 3 channels: Nightly, Beta, Release. All of them are supposed to be released at a certain point, every 6 weeks a version merges to the next channel.
You would have to download the Firefox sources and make your own build with your changes, at every release.
You don't need Visual Studio to build Firefox, you just need the Windows SDK https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Windows_Prerequisites
Marco, my system is windows 7 64 bit for this I'm not sure if sdk for seven run for example with new mozilla. I read that no.

Is this task a request to make the 60 days limit configurable, or what is requested exactly?
Discussing how to compile software would be off-topic for this task.

Yes the argument is 60 day but to modify the code for this thing to resolve this bug I'm asking help because for me that I'm blind, I use nvda and windows 7 home premium 64 bit is a problem but I'd like change mozilla for me.

Hi Alessio, please can you explain why you need to store the downloads for more than 60 days?
How often, and why do you really need to go back and check for an older download? Why isn't just the history that contains the fact you've visited a page enough?
Understanding the use cases and reasons would help us greatly in deciding what to do here.

isn't because for example for me that I like old mozilla isn't incorrect for me no 60 days but 2000 i proposed because i have got a copy of a version's source code in precision version 55 that I would like to modify for same this rule of 60 day but I an send here the edited js but the problem is compile in exe all to transform the unic modify that I do because I like use a custom mozilla firefox without things that molest me.

We would be happy to consider a change to Firefox itself, but to do so, we need solid reasons as to why users might need the change to help justify it. We're not getting that here, so I'm sorry, but I'm closing this as wontfix.
If you want to build Firefox yourself, you can look at the build instructions - you will probably only need an artifact build.

The reason can be that an other person that loved old mozilla like me doesn't want autodelete in mozilla and wants for example a time of a year to delete the downloads or big links that person that visited loved this page and didn't want delete this page after 60 day but would to wait for example 1 year or when want the person!
