I accidentally closed FF when I was closing another window. There were some tabs opened that I didn't want to refresh because they would have changed. It doesn't happen often but I would have liked to have the ability to say oops.

Did you want a warning before Firefox closes?

I think this is it; Type about:config<enter> in the address bar. If a warning screen comes up, press the I Accept the Risk button. At the top of the screen is a search bar.

Look for browser.showQuitWarning

I have marked this solved. I haven't tried it yet. If it doesn't work I'll start a new thread.
