Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:13.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/13.0.1

After a very brief power outage to my pc, the pc automatically restarted but when I opened FF again my Restore Session menu came up showing only 1 window with 2 tabs in it, both labeled as "about:blank." Previously, I had 5 windows open with a various number of tabs opened in each window.

Is there any way to get back my previous windows & tabs?

With Firefox open, go to

Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button

This should display your currently active Firefox settings folder (AKA Firefox profile folder). Make a copy of all sessionstore... files in a safe place so you have those to try again after any experiments.


I think someone more familiar with how Firefox works with those files would need to help you rename/substitute them.

Meanwhile, these might help:

History > Recently closed Windows
History > Recently closed Tabs
History sidebar (Ctrl+h to open and close; these will be fresh visits)

Are you using Clear Recent History to clear the browsing history when you close Firefox?
