Updating to 127 unable to restore current session windows

I upgraded from 126.0.1 to 127 today. Upon update, all my windows are gone. The only way I could access them is to revert to an older profile backup and reinstall 126.0.1.

I tried exporting my session with Tab Session Manager in 126.0.1 and reopen them in 127, but that only restores the last tab of each window (oddly). The json clearly lists 3 windows each with multiple tabs. I tried copying the sessionstore-backups folder, but no dice.

Seems like I went to `about:profiles`, selected `Restart with Add-ons Disabled` (without refreshing), the tabs/windows are all back. And then I clicked restart normally and the tabs/windows stayed. So definitely a weird update.
