These threads list techniques for "mining" your sessionstore.bak file to extract the URLs.
- Using Firefox's Browser Console (formerly known as Error Console): https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/969046#answer-471950
- Using Firefox developer tool "Scratchpad": http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=622036&start=60&p=12098147#p12098147 (this is the one you already tried)
- Using a third party website: https://firefox-session-restore.herokuapp.com/
To some extent, these methods rely on the data in the file being in good shape (i.e., not corrupted). In one or more past threads, perhaps in the context of a bookmark backup, someone suggested a tool for checking the validity of a JSON-format file. That kind of tool could identify where, for example, a closing parenthesis might be missing or there is an extra comma.

i would like to not just manually extract just links i need to be like before- to open all like there were before crash
is that possible ?
ty for fast reply
Could we review the file(s) you have? For example, did you save a sessionstore.bak file that contains the windows and tabs you want to re-open? Make sure to have a backup of this in a safe location (e.g., Documents folder) before proceeding, since this file will be overwritten at Firefox startup.
If you have an intact sessionstore.bak file, try substituting it for the sessionstore.js file. Here's what I mean.
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit
Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename sessionstore.js to something like sessionstore.save to keep your latest session available for future access.
Note: If the .js extension does not appear on sessionstore, you should turn off the Windows feature that hides file extensions from you, so that you can work with file names as accurately as possible. This Microsoft support article has the steps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/865219.
Then copy your sessionstore.bak file that contains the windows and tabs you want to reopen back into the folder and rename it to sessionstore.js.
Restart Firefox and restore your previous session. Success?
