Hello, Until before firefox was updated to v61.0, I had set the browser.tabs.restorebutton=1 under about:config. This created a "Restore Previous Session" button in the top of the FF window. It does not work anymore with FF 61.0.

Any suggestions? The Preference Name browser.tabs.restorebutton still exists under about:config but it just seems to be useless in 61.0.

Thank you, George

Hi, beyond me, am sure someone knows the changing code.

Thought would see if anything interested you here :

Will need to sift through the pages.

Thank you Pkshadow. I would be interested in having this functionality embedded in Firefox, rather than downloading an addon which might be disfunctional in a future release. However, if someone can confirm that the button is gone indeed in v61.0, I will certainly take a look in the addons. Thank you very much for taking the time to respond.

It's gone.

Well, that sucks. And not sure why Mozilla actually had to remove it, the same time that the parameter "browser.tabs.restorebutton" exists under "about:config". But thanks a lot for the confirmation anyway. Have a great day there, George
