When will the "Well, this is embarrassing..." problem going to be fixed? A lot of folks are having the problem. Do I need to just switch back to Safari?
When I log onto Moz., get an error message starting with, Well this is embarrassing... I don't have any clue what to do about it except to switch to a browser that is working.

A likely cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.
Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.
- Bug 845681 - Closing all windows and quitting Firefox afterwards leads to about:sessionrestore to be shown on next startup
(please do not comment in bug reports: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=etiquette.html)
It's happening because in the last update Mozilla made a mistake and rather than fix it, they keep giving people a workaround.
Fix it for goddsake! There are too many other good browsers out there to screw with people like this.
I upgraded to FF Ver 20.0 a couple of months ago, and that is when this "Well, this is embarrassing" nonsense started. I've been using Firefox for many years on my several Mac computers, and it is only with this LAST upgrade that I have been getting this "error" message every time I start Firefox. YES, I have figured out how to avoid this problem by simply making sure that the particular window I want to START with is on the screen before I click the "Quit Firefox" tab under the "Firefox" word on the top menu. BUT HAVING TO DO THAT EVERY TIME I CLOSE FIREFOX IS NONSENSICAL !! Why do I have to do that now, when I've never had to do that before? It makes no sense. To avoid desktop clutter, I have always closed the open Firefox windows on the screen, but leave Firefox running in the background; then, when I want to get back on the internet an hour later and re-open Firefox (as I have done thousands of times in the past), now I get that nonsensical "Well, this is embarrassing" message again. It is extremely irritating, and totally unnecessary. MOZILLA/FIREFOX Team ---- whatever you did, you must FIX this irritating problem which so MANY of us faithful Firefox users are now facing.
