When i've used firefox before it always asked if i wanted to save the tabs before closing. Now it warns me that i am closing multiple tabs, so now instead of reloading the tabs i had open earlier, everytime i close then reopen firefox it always just opens to my homepage instead of reloading my tabs. How can i change it back?

To get your Tabs and Windows back from a Previous Session, you should close Firefox from the menu: At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (File menu in Windows XP) and then click Exit.

you can also see this: Session Restore

https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Session%20Restore

Check and tell if its working.

Firefox 4 and later versions save the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.

Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox") if you want to restore multiple windows.

You can use "History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time. You may need to click the orange/gray Firefox button to see History.

There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.
