I have firefox set to re-show my tabs from last time when I restart it. However, when I close and restart, the first tab is always empty. If I choose 'view source', the file is empty. Refreshing or shift-refreshing the tab does not cause it to load. I can copy the url and paste it into a new tab and that will load fine.

This wouldn't be too annoying, except it also happens with about:sessionrestore, and when I open it in a new tab, it doesn't show any tabs to restore.

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder that stores session data. Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
