Lost all windows after my pc randomly restarted!
I think it was update, my pc restarted. But it usually asks weird. I lost all windows and all tabs. Yet in library/history under restore windows, there is nothing! There was some json file, from which you could get tabs. I tried it last time and it didn't work. Also firefox wasn't even running at that time and previously i had all windows and tabs... Are you kidding me???
I lost like hundreds of important tabs.... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa............

Really fast response time... Problem wasn't solved...
Do you have a recent upgrade file in the sessionstore-backups folder in the profile folder or in the "Old Firefox Data" folder on the desktop in case you did refresh Firefox ?
You will normally find these files in the sessionstore-backups folder:
- previous.jsonlz4 (cleanBackup: copy of sessionstore.jsonlz4 from previous session that was loaded successfully)
- recovery.jsonlz4 (latest version of sessionstore.jsonlz4 written during runtime)
- recovery.baklz4 (previous version of sessionstore.jsonlz4 written during runtime)
- upgrade.jsonlz4-<build_id> (backup created during an upgrade of Firefox)
You can copy a file from the sessionstore-backups folder to the main profile and rename the file to sessionstore.jsonlz4 to replace the current file (make sure to backup the current sessionstore.jsonlz4).
You can look at this tool to inspect a compressed sessionstore file.
I don't know what you mean by main profile.
I have no sessionstore.jsonlz4 even nothing like that in session-backups and one folder up.
I tried scrounger and there were like 4 tabs, i had hundreds :( I tried even recuva and it didn't find anything :( And i opened with it all files in session-backups and tried no fallback option too :/

When you close Firefox then Firefox creates sessionstore.jsonlz4 at the root level in the profile folder from the recovery.jsonlz4 file in the sessionstore-backups folder. When Firefox is running then you won't find sessionstore.jsonlz4. Each time you update Firefox then a upgrade.jsonlz4 should have been created, so if you do not have these upgrade files in the sessionstore-backups folder then this would suggest that this is a recent profile.

That's where i was looking, yet there was no sessionstore.jsonlz4, nor it is here now!!! Yes i looked, when firefox wasn't running and unhided all 4 checkboxes in explorer! I have upgrade files in session-backups, what is with them?
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.

Yeah i know about this, i am in current profile! There is no sessionstore.jsonlz4 or how it called. Only recorvery.balkz4/jsonlz4, which didn't contain my bookmarks. I was told to backup these in future, but i fear my bookmarks were permanently lost!
