What systems have i visitied (over the years)

Is there a way to view this? ... I know there is an option ingame to view "visited stars" but that seems to show me random stars within the bubble. I have visited every engineer in the bubble multiple times to engineer multiple ships. When i select the visited stars option half of them dont even show up even though i know ive been there.

Im trying to figure out what systems ive visited over the years so i can find some of my first discovered systems. I have had an Inara account for a long time and i know when i went on my first big exploration trip that included most of my first discoveries.

Is there a way to figure out what these unique systems are?
 
That depends on when you made those discoveries. If that was before the systems were written to your ED logs then you have no way to get a list of those systems. I guess they added that information around version 2.x.

I suggest you give the third party tool "EDDiscovery" a try. It will read all your logs (i.e. journal files) and show you your history as an exportable list, as well as a 2D or 3D-visualisation (besides MANY other features like text-to-speech): https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...ecognition-speech-star-maps-webserver.329643/
 
The Visited Stars list is also only saved locally, on your computer. So if you uninstall/reinstall, switch computers, or otherwise play on more than one machine, you reset the Visited Stars file and the whole galaxy turns red again.

You can use third-party tools like EDD to reconstruct your Visited Stars file from your journals. However, if you were playing prior to 2.1, it can't find those as that's when journalling really began.
 
It's gonna be difficult even with the mentioned tools to filter out the actually interesting/noteworthy ones. I have visited over 15000 systems by now, imagine looking through a list of this many... Better bet would be bookmarks, if you made them.

You can search on anything using EDDiscovery, just enter the detail you want to find using the search box.

There is another tool called Elite Observatory that has settings to search the player logs for a variety of interesting features, that's well worth running.

so for instance if i do not have any of my journals can i search EDDiscovery for systems discovered by me?

No, unfortunately not. EDD is based on your journal files and lets you visualise and analyse that data. If you've never imported your journal files EDD has nothing to run that search on.

If I may ask (as I don't know how much you know): Are you sure you don't have access to your journal files? They are generated automatically by the game and should be easily available, unless you've lost them due to upgrading/migrating your system over the time you played (quite possible looking at when you registered on to this forum). In case you've previously used EDD, EDMC or something similar to upload your data to EDSM you can retrieve your 'history' from there into EDD.

If both these cases do not apply to you, you're probably out of luck, sorry. I've tried to get a few missing/lost Journal files (when I briefly played on another PC) from FDev support, but they were very clear that they don't have that information (or are unwilling to process/produce that data retrospectively).
