I used Mozilla from the first time i had an internet connection and as long as i can remember when i had open tabs that i wanted to see later i could save them simple by just closing the mozilla without closing the tabs first...i did a format a couple of days earlier and since then i can't save the tabs i want so i can see them again as long as i want when i open the explorer.Is there any way i can fix this?Because i had this version of Mozilla and before the format and i could also save my tabs...now the programm does not give me that option when i close it.

Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.

Using the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting is a more reliable way to restore session data.

Any tips on what to do if that doesn't work? I didn't have "Clear Recent History" checked to begin with and my FF settings used to work but suddenly stopped showing my last windows and tabs. Haven't changed anything or done anything different with my mac.

Frustrating because FF keeps hanging so I have to force quit and don't even get the chance to bookmark pages for later use. Thanks!

If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then check the settings for the Firefox application.

Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.


Is there a sessionstore.js file created in the Firefox profile folder?
