My computer crashed and when I opened firefox again all my tabs were gone. I had remembered that I read somewhere on here that I could restore my tabs using previous versions, so I went to do that. By accident I got to the previous version page and hit restore instead of open. I believe I have rewritten over my session. Is there any way to restore my session now that I have hit restore by accident?

Also, I have managed to open the restore file in a tab with what I believe to be all the tab information but it is huge and there is no way to read it. Is there any way I can comb through this info and hopefully pull my tab information out of this page?

thanks, christine

Hi chrissie87,

sessionrestore.js is overwritten evertime you close firefox. It is possible to rename is before you close the session, but not likely. You may like these two add ons:

I am sorry you lost your session. If you have any other questions, we are happy to help.
