Safari 15 recent history not showing

I always found the ability to click on History and scroll through your recent pages very useful. In Safari 15 this has disappeared and you have to open the 'Show All History' window. Also, the 'Recently Closed' option seems to be permanently greyed out. Any way to get this back?

Safari 12.1.2. Clearing "recently closed" menu without deleting cookies. Impossible? How do I clear "recently closed" menu in Safari WITHOUT clearing cookies and website data? To clear my history in Safari I go to the History drop-down menu, I choose "Select All History" and then press delete. This doesn't clear cookies. This is what I want. However, this history still appears in "recently closed". That is ridiculous. I DELETED history. That means I want to delete it. I don't select "Clear All History" at the bottom of the History drop-down because that deletes cookies. I don't want to delete cookies. This is such a basic thing that is unfathomable to me that it is not possible.

Forget this - I restarted and all the history started working again. No idea what that was all about.
