You have to go to Tools - Clear Private Data. And that gets rid of everything Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Visit Webpages 2. Press Ctrl + H 3. Right click on a Folder 4. Select Delete Actual Results: It highlighted the folder and the option above it? Expected Results: It should have deleted the folder and all of the history in that folder
Confirmed here. From the history sidebar, you can't delete full folders like 'Today' or 'Yesterday' but you can delete items inside those folders.
This is a regression from Firefox2. I remember it worked back then.
Appears to be fixed by checking from bug 376706. Please check.
