Lost all my pinned an open tabs
Firefuxxed was refusing to open new tabs so I shut it down and restarted it (always fixes it) and all my pinned and open tabs were gone with no way to recover them, it took me half an hour to manually restore the pinned ones one by one but not all of them as I cannot remember all of them let alone all the open tabs I had (hours of research gone down the toilet).
There should be a way to backup and restore pinned and open tabs so this doesn't happen, the history option does nothing.
OS: Linux Mint 22 fresh install from a week ago Previous version of Firefuxxed updated after this shamossel.

No good.
Post a screenshot of the files (detailed view) in your sessionstore-backups folder. see screenshot Some times during update or restart, I have noticed that Firefox will reset all files in this folder which is why I make copies of this folder.

An explanation of where I can find this might help.
Firefuxxed has done it again, refusing to open tabs sometimes every few minutes, I had to shut it down and restart and lost all my pinned tabs again.
FIX IT EFFYA!
Just had to shut Firefuxxed down again.
To clarify, you mention "Firefuxxed". This is the support forum for Firefox. If you are using a different version, perhaps a fork of the Mozilla code, can you try a copy of Firefox from Mozilla.
