Describe the bug
When I import a previously exported history file, nothing is imported. I checked the text file and all the information is in the file.
To Reproduce
No response
Error reports
No error report since it is just exporting and importing the history file.
Screenshots & Screen Records
No response
Additional context
I'm not sure if it is related. When I move a file from the original directory and return it, The history list doesn't recognize it. The filename is never changed.
maybe there're some invalid characters in the output (usually quotes ' ")
if you don't mind sharing your download history, I can look into fixing this issue.
