Firefox Community Forum

Hi,

I shared a lot of important tabs to my laptop (using the firefox built-in share/send to other device button), upon starting it, they seemed to arrive just fine and opened on my laptop, however I accidentally clicked to "history"->"restore last session", which made this firefox window go away and all my sent tabs seem lost.

Is there any way to get them back? Any type of log?

I tried the following already: - Looking through History (they do not appear there at all) - Looking at recently closed tabs (there aren't any listed) - checking synced tabs window (did not contain the ones I sent from my phone to my laptop) - checked session recovery files ( none of my synced tabs seem to have gotten stored into that session recovery file)

So is there any other log or place I can look at? I refuse to believe that this is not saved anywhere? Or on mozilla servers at least? Can support help me?

Thanks for any ideas!

EDIT: I found this, may is something similar: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/send-tabs-log/idi-p/15640

There was an update with Mozilla Firefox on the 8th. I had tabs open on the computer. After the update, I could not retrieve the tabs I had open. Tried to restore and nothing worked. Is there any way to restore my tabs?

I thought I used to be able to access browser history from much longer ago, either way I can no longer see any history longer ago than 29/10/2025 is there anyway for me to restore, download or access older history, or has it been permanently deleted? I do still have a back-up of 28/12/2025 but I don't know if or where that contains history. I'm looking for data between 2019-06-01 and 2024-08-21. Weird thing is I remember accessing search history that old before... though I'm not sure how if if it doesn't store it for that long. Any help would be appreciated.

I have always used Firefox. Today - some update has erased all my bookmarks. it says import from Edge - but I don't use that. I lost my job last month so all my bookmarks are so very important and now they are all gone. OMG

Please help.

I use a SAAS solution for my small business (FreshBooks) that has not been working well with Firefox as of late. When I reached out to their customer care department they asked me to follow their resolution steps, which included wiping the cache and cookies for all of my Firefox browser. I did so at their request, it did not fix their issue (it appears to be something their developers are working on solving) and subsequently I lost a lot of retained other sites log-in and history. Is there a way to restore the cache cookies that were removed yesterday? Appreciate your help,
