Firefox does not ask to save tabs and windows on exit
Ọdịnaya:
If you have stopped receiving a "''Do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts''" prompt when you {for win}exit{/for}{for mac,linux}quit{/for} Firefox, this problem could be due to settings, extension problems, or corrupted files causing failure of Firefox components.
__TOC__
= Settings may be set incorrectly =
If your Firefox settings are configured differently, the prompt will not occur.
{for fx3}
# [[T:optionspreferences]]
# Select the {menu Main} panel, and set '''When Firefox starts''' to '''Show my home page'''.
# Switch to the {menu Tabs} panel, and check mark '''Warn me when closing multiple tabs'''.
# Switch to the {menu Privacy} panel, and uncheck '''Always clear my private data when I close Firefox'''.
# [[T:closeOptionsPreferences]]
{/for}
{for fx35}
# [[T:optionspreferences]]
# Select the {menu General} panel ({menu Main} panel in Firefox 3.5), and set '''When Firefox starts''' to '''Show my home page'''.
# Switch to the {menu Tabs} panel, and check mark '''Warn me when closing multiple tabs'''.
# Switch to the {menu Privacy} panel, and make sure '''Firefox will:''' is set to either '''Remember History''' or '''Use custom settings for history'''.
** If '''Firefox will:''' is set to '''Use custom settings for history''', uncheck '''Clear my history when Firefox closes'''.
# [[T:closeOptionsPreferences]]
{/for}
= Extensions are interfering =
Some extensions (e.g. Tab Mix Plus) are known to cause this problem. To find out if it is an extension, read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
= Corrupted files =
Firefox stores your user information in a separate folder on your computer. One or more files within that folder may be corrupt.
# [[T:profileFolder]]
# [[T:closeFirefox]]
** Make sure Firefox is not running at this point.
# Within your profile folder, rename these files:
** Rename {filepath formhistory.sqlite} to {filepath formhistory.sqlite.bak}.
** Rename {filepath sessionstore.js} to {filepath sessionstore.js.bak}.
;:{note}'''Note: Should you need to restore the old versions of these files, simply remove the .bak from the end of each file and delete the new versions that replaced these backups.'''{/note}
If you have stopped receiving a "'''''Do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts'''''" prompt when you {for win}exit{/for}{for mac,linux}quit{/for} Firefox, this problem could be due to incorrect settings. To fix this, please do the following:
{for fx4,win}Show for text.{/for}
* type "'''about:config'''" (without marks) into the address bar
* you will see a page with a warning, click "'''''i'll be careful, i promise!'''''"
* scroll down the page or type into the filter, and find "'''browser.showQuitWarning'''"
*if the value (the filter at the top of the page) is "'''false'''" then double click "'''browser.showQuitWarning'''" and it will change to '''"true'''"
* also the status will change from "'''default'''" to '''"user set"'''
* '''done'''! :)
now when you go to close firefox with multiple tabs open, a window will pop up saying: "''Do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time it starts?''" and you can choose to "'''''save and quit'''''" or just "'''''quit'''''".
