Don't close tabs on exit

If you want the warning message to re-appear, then it can be set from 'Tools->Options' window. Under the 'Tabs' section, just select "Warn me when closing multiple tabs". If you want the tabs to be saved & re-opened the next time you open the browser, then in the same options window, in the 'General Tab', select "Show my windows and tabs from last time" for 'When Firefox starts:'.

I have this problem too. I close all the tabs and close Firefox. Then when I open Firefox again all the tabs (now around 10) appear. If I go to File on Firefox and click on close Firefox they still reappear. What a nightmare - the slow my computer down. Do I need a different Browser or is there and answer to this Problem?

Rebeccaspeers10, I suggest part of the answer is above here. Your problem may be in your Startup condition. Go to Options/General and look at what's in the little window under Startup. There are 3 conditions possible, Show my Homepage, Show blank page, and Show my windows and tabs from last time. Maybe yours is set to the last one. If so, choose one of the others. Hope this helps

You can also check if you have an user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
