Why at open my firefox session tabs open as an old cashed version and do not refresh automaticaly? I have to manually refresh each tab to get the updated website page, I am sure there is a setting as it was not doing so before but cant find that setting. Thanks

Hello Gilles2oz

  1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
  3. copy the next bold preference browser.cache.check_doc_frequency and paste it in the search field
  4. double-click on it and change the value to 1
  5. click ok, exit firefox and restart it.

BUT....the adove does not work if you use session restore to reopen tabs on your next start, you have to clear the browser cache when you close Firefox (from 3-bar button > Options > Privacy > History > Firefox will > Clear history when Firefox closes [v] > Settings > cache [v].

thank you
