Are you using the startup setting to restore the previous session automatically or do you use "History -> Restore Previous Session" ? You may have to check "History -> Recently Closed Windows/Tabs". This might be best:

  • Settings -> General -> Startup -> Open previous windows and tabs

Use one of these to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the Firefox Title bar, especially if you have multiple windows or Private Browsing windows open to prevent losing tabs in unnoticed windows.

  • "3-bar" menu button -> Exit (Power button)
  • Windows: File -> Exit
  • Mac: Firefox -> Quit Firefox
  • Linux: File -> Quit
