rotefantas2,
1. which history plugin do you use?
2. if you could download any SQLITE Browser for Windows, you'd be able to open this profile and execute a query like

SELECT * FROM events WHERE contact_id = XXX;

where XXX is the contact id, you can find it in dbeditor++ in the list of Contacts

rotefantas2,

2. if you could download any SQLITE Browser for Windows, you'd be able to open this profile and execute a query like

SELECT * FROM events WHERE contact_id = XXX;

where XXX is the contact id, you can find it in dbeditor++ in the list of Contacts
1. none
2. where is the path of the profile? which browser do you recommend ? this  one?
https://sqlitebrowser.org/dl/

rotefantas2,
1. by default = Profiles subfolder of your Miranda NG installation path, or ProfilePath variable in your mirandaboot.ini
2. yes, why not

mirandaboot.ini -> ProfileDir=<profile path>

<profile path>/<profile name>/<profile name>.dat = it is your database

SELECT * FROM events WHERE contact_id = XXX;

where XXX is the contact id, you can find it in dbeditor++ in the list of Contacts
1. Install the DbEditorPP plugin
2. Right-click on contact -> Open in Database Editor -> See contact ID (dec value)
In my case, it is 447
3. Open db in SQLite Browser (always use a copy, do not experiment on your real db)
4. Switch to Execute SQL
5. Execute SELECT * FROM events WHERE contact_id = 447; command
6. See SQL Log

-- EXECUTING ALL IN 'SQL 1'
--
-- At line 1:
SELECT * FROM events WHERE contact_id = 447;
-- Result: 325 rows returned in 149ms

325 events in history for this contact

7. See timestamp for event 1 (1 is the oldest event in contact history)
1634160132
8. Convert this UNIX timestamp to date with https://www.unixtimestamp.com
GMT    Wed Oct 13 2021 21:22:12 GMT+0000

Result: the history of conversations with this contact in my database starts with Oct 13 2021 21:22:12 GMT
This is in complete agreement with what the history viewer plugin History++ shows me in Miranda (Oct 13 21:22:12 GMT = Oct 14 0:22:12 GMT+3)

This way you will find out if there is a history older than 30 days in the database or not.

If there is no history older than 30 days in the database... well, for some reason it is erased. I have no idea why.

If there is a history older than 30 days in the database, perhaps this is some kind of bug in the history viewer, and it simply cannot show it. Try another history viewer (HistoryPP plugin or Basic History). Or create new database and import all contacts and history from old database to the new one.
