Why doesn't the Firefox 4 restore all sessions that were open at the time of exit? Before updating, I was either asked ("SAVE AND QUIT") or even if it closed down UNEXPECTEDLY (crashed ) it STILL restored them. New version doesn't offer "Save and quit".

Firefox now always stores the old session which you can access by going to the History menu and selecting "Restore Previous Session".


If you always open the last set of tabs, an alternative approach is this:

  1. Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
  2. Go to the General panel
  3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"

Thank you very, very much! That was really helpful ! I've already changed the settings.
