Windows 11 Pro 64bit, v.22000. All of a sudden, Firefox goes haywire. Latest is I cannot turn on Open previous windows and tabs in version 104.0.2. The checkbox is simply grayed-out. WHY??? I didn't make any changes - these problems just started on their own. Also, none of my passwords for various websites are automatically available anymore.

Could you make sure your Firefox is not set to run in Automatic Private Browsing mode. That is set on the Settings page, Privacy & Security panel, History section.

While you're there, if you have Firefox set to clear history when it closes, use the Settings button to verify that it is NOT removing Browsing & Download history, since that also will clear session history (open tabs).
