FF 14.0.1 doesn't save the tabs i had opened
Hello, well up until Firefox version 13 when i had multiple tabs open and i closed Firefox i received the option to save the tabs and quit or just quit without saving. So if i clicked to save the tabs and quit then when i opened Firefox again it would restore the last tabs i had opened. I never had a problem with this until my Firefox updated to version 14.0.1 yesterday. I STILL get the message if i want to save my tabs. The problem is that i click save and quit but when i open Firefox again they don't restore at all. It just opens with one tab on the homepage. If you need any more information let me know!

Hi,
You can try to Restore Previous Session via History (Alt + S) after startup. You can also try to set When Firefox starts: to Show my windows and tabs from last time in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > General.
If the problem persists, you can also consider the Reset Firefox feature via Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information.
I tried with the Alt+S and it seems to work but i don't want to have to do that everytime I restart Firefox. The feature was working perfectly until they updated it to 14.0.1 I just don't understand why would they launch an update that would break such an essential feature as that one.
Dear Mormaii2,
I just don't understand either - as you don't - why they would do such an imperceptible update-launch that makes "Show my windows and tabs from last time" feature so impractical and so unfunctional ; but I think I found out the answer after having done almost about an hour or so long research on the web and the solution I came across was once again in one of those "Firefox Help" pages.
Pls. check this link out provided down below and follow the two-step instruction within the link
which is gonna give you the ability to restore all of your multiple tabs open whenever you re-start your Firefox session without having to apply "Alt+S" feature - or having to select "Restore All Tabs" under the "Recently Closed Tabs" from the "History Menu" which is also exactly the very same feature as that of "Alt+S" that does the very same function as well.
Hope this information would be of help to you and allow you to go on using Firefox the way you got used to:))
Best always,
G.B.
Here's the fix!
Go to tools / options / general / when firefox starts / set to "show my windows and tabs from last time".
Click OK
Now you can click the red X in the top right corner and it'll close the whole thing without a prompt. Open up firefox and all of your tabs pop back up just as they were when you closed the browser.
