in settings Homepage and new windows use custom urls, current urls doesn't include Pinned tabs. Windows updated and when firefox was restored two windows were opened, one was blank and the other opened old home page settings but did not reopen all my pinned tabs, gmail, yahoo mail,and some other tabs I plnned, there are 5 of them and several regular tabs I had open before and most of them did not show up in history. Pinned tabs do not get included in use custom urls for the home pages. Also for several days my roboform bar would not show up, roboform said no open browers to attach to when firefox was open.

First, could you check the closed windows using either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > History > Recently Closed Windows
  • "Library" toolbar button > History > Recently Closed Windows
  • (menu bar) History > Recently Closed Windows

Are your missing tabs in one of those closed windows?

Second, it's true, Pinned Tabs are different from home tabs. You can pin and unpin tabs as you work instead of editing the setting.

Third, open tabs often are not easy to find in History because the page may not have changed recently and history is listed by the latest time a specific page was opened. This may be why session history has to be stored separately from regular history.


I don't know how Roboform works. Do you need an add-on to make the connection? I see one on the Mozilla Add-ons site:
