First check a setting for how Firefox opens.

  1. Open the options dialog - in the Tools menu select Options
  2. In the Options dialog select the General panel
  3. Make sure the setting "When Firefox starts" is set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

If it is already set to that, there may be a problem with the file that stores details of sessions.

  1. Open the profile folder, for details of how to access it see Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data
  2. Close Firefox
  3. In the profile folder delete sessionstore.js, plus if it exists sessionstore.bak

Hopefully, when you next close and re-open Firefox it should rmember the sessions.
