I have scoured the forms left and right trying to look for a solution. browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash is set to false browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once is set to false. Trying and looking This browser still restores my tabs from shutdown, which is not something I want it to do at all.

Are you letting the OS close Firefox ? In that case Firefox automatically sets these prefs:

  • browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once
  • browser.sessionstore.resuming_after_os_restart

Note that best is to close Firefox yourself.

Both of those are set to false. I do not know what the issue is

Those prefs get reset to false once Firefox starts, so in Firefox you will always see these prefs set to false. You would have to check prefs.js before Firefox starts and that is likely not possible as you can't access the profile folder when Firefox isn't running.

Does this still happen if you close Firefox before shutting down Linux?
