A few days ago I updated FF to latest version as prompted. After updating, when I went to close FF - there was no prompt asking if I wanted to save tabs - it just quit and I lost all my tabs. I didn't have this problem before updating. Please advise.

Firefox 4 saves the previous session automatically, so there is no longer need for the dialog asking if you want to save the current session.
Use "File > Exit" or "Firefox > Exit" if you want to restore multiple windows.
You can use "Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session" to get the previous session at any time.
There is also a "Restore Previous Session" button on the default about:home Home page.

Another possibility is to use:

  • Firefox > Preferences > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
