Hello, you're on Firefox 16 which is not supported. Please upgrade to Firefox 52 to continue getting security updates, and to continue using Restore Previous Session. You can get it from here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/all/

In your screenshot, there was a sessionstore.js (2 Dec) and a sessionstore-1.js (2 Sept). My guess is that neither of those is the file you're looking for.

I do not see a sessionstore.bak file.

Prior to about Firefox 33, Firefox had very little redundancy in session history files, so you may be out of luck.

Did you use the Session Manager extension? It stores its .session files in a folder named Sessions or something similar.

To preview the contents of a session history file you can drag and drop it onto this tool:
