Firefox does not reopen all tabs on update (closes some tabs)

Just updated to FF 141.0.3. The browser had advised me to restart to finish the update. So I did. But in doing so, not all my tabs were recovered.

Most were, but like 3 were not.

Hi Rafe,

This happened to me too recently. Did you make sure that you're using the same profile as before?

Yeah, I am using the same profile.

Ooops, that's a bummer. Did you check your Settings page to make sure if you have "Open previous windows and tabs" option checked?

Yeah, that setting is and has been turned on.

Ugh, that sounds like a bug, yeah. Normally, this happen due to Firefox using another profile after an update (see Recover user data missing after Firefox update).

Have you been able to spot the 3 missing tabs from your history?

Do we know how I could file a bug report? Yeah, I was able to recover the tabs

You may want to check out File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products. I'm glad that you can at least recover the missing tabs.
