When I am out of my office using my laptop, upon launching Firefox, it displays all of the tabs from the previous session on the non-existent extra monitor which is set up as a screen extention for when I am in my office. All of the other programs that I park on the extra monitor (Outlook for example) display on the laptop's screen when the extra monitor is not attached. Is this a bug? Or, must I not save my open tabs when exiting Firefox if I am going to use the laptop w/o the monitor?

Hi,

This is slightly inconvenient, but one way to avoid this would be to place Firefox into the laptop screen before exiting Firefox. I think this is sometimes a problem in Firefox.

Thanks for your suggestion. I sort of came to that conclusion as I was typing the original question. However if there is anyone out there who has a solution that is not dependent on my remembering to do something before I exit Firefox, it will be welcomed.

You could keep two copies of the localstore.rdf file, one for each configuration, and restore the version that uses the laptop screen if necessary.
