With the new Firefox, when I close out the window, it does not give me the option to reload all the tabs I have open the next time I start Firefox. How do I get this feature back?

With the previous version of Firefox, when I closed out, I was offered the option to save all the open tabs to be automatically reloaded the next time I opened Firefox. The new Firefox doesn't offer this feature. How can I make this work?

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session. You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session. There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page. Another possibility is to use: 

   Firefox (Tools) > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
