V 4.01 with Vista. Even after choosing the correct option in options>options>General FF does not start up with the last session of Tabs and Windows. It always opens with a single blank Tab. What am I doing wrong?

Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Browsing History" if Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

If you use CCleaner then make sure that Session is unchecked in the settings for the Firefox application.

I have set FF to "Remember History" and have not cleared recent history. I do not use CC Cleaner.

Can you reopen that last session via Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session ?

Yes I can. Have also tried setting a few pages as multipage home page. This also works. But...cannot set it to open last session automatically.

Thanks so much. FF is working better than ie, except for this problem.
