Sometimes my Firefox browser does not restore all the tabs from last session ...it only restores some of the pages. I've noticed usually the pages which are not restored again are the ones recently opened just right before restarting/shutting down the browser.

Is there any way I can update restore session so it saves all the pages info before I restart or shut down the browser. I've tried syncing but that doesn't help too.

Also if my browser is running for a long time, or have multiple pages opened like 15 -18 pages...it starts to show random black boxes/rectangles on the whole Firefox browser window......I have inquired to Mozilla support about this before also and tried many different suggestions but to this day it still happens from time to time....please help me solving this......I love Firefox browser..I CANNOT work on any other browser...Thanks in advance

You may have corrupt sessionstore file(s). Delete all sessionstore* files and the sessionstore-backups folder.

Type about:support in the address bar and press enter.

Under the page logo on the left side, you will see Application Basics. Under this find Profile Folder. To its right press the button Show Folder. This will open your file browser to the current Firefox profile. Now Close Firefox.

Locate the above file. Then rename or delete it. Restart Firefox.
