Hi, There use to be an option regarding saving opened tabs when we close firefox. I can't find it now.

As you may know that after enabling this option one could save all his/her tabs on exit and start where we left on next launch. It is really helpful.

Previously: about:config [something].showQuitWarning

Hello Ali5,

I think what you are really looking for is to restore the previous session ...... (?)

If so : 3-bar menu => Options => General => under "Startup"" check "Restore previous session" and "Warn you when quitting the browser".

If however, that is not what you want and you just want to get a warning when you're about to close tabs :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar browser.tabs.warn

And set the values of the preferences to true

Then close and restart Firefox.

'Hope this helps .....
