No problem. If you like clearing more data you can. You can read about that here:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/delete-browsing-search-download-history-firefox

I just didn't want you to delete something by accident.

If you want to be logged off of sites after you close your browser, you can check "Active Logins" and "Cookies" as well.

But you will need to login again to sites you want to visit every you start your browser. Also, there are a lot of things cookies are used for, so some things that are customized using that will be lost each time you close the browser.

It might cause some issues with highly secure sites that try to remember your computer. I'm not sure what category that falls into. You might have to enter an answer to a security question because the site may not recognize your computer each time.

I used to clear everything but the "Browsing & Download History". If I typed a site wrong I would then delete it like that page shows. I didn't have any big issues with clearing everything but that. Now though I do keep myself logged in to some sites because I have password protected my computer.

The "Browsing & Download History" is just important so you don't lose sites you visit. If you don't want to store a certain link you want to visit, then you can use private browsing mode or delete the site manually. I like being able to type something and then have the most popular links I visit come up. You can save things to your bookmarks too and have them come up in the address bar that way even if you did clear the browsing history, but then you have to remember to bookmark everything.
