Yesterday I was playing about 10 war3 servers, And i checked today so I can join one of them but there was none of them on the history tab. I checked the favorites and they weren't there. Anyone have a suggestion about that?

Stop Steam, go to the config folder under your Steam installation path (normally it's "%ProgramFiles%/Valve/Steam" but you might have changed it), delete the serverbrowser.vdf file and restart Steam.

I hope this helps,

This only does it for the future or does it put all the history back? Im kinda scared about the part of deleting a serverbrowsing file.

It starts fresh. It's impossible to put your history back if it isn't being saved due to a fluke in the file, no?

It does erase your favorites, so you'll have to re-add them again.
