'Restore Previous Session' missing from Menu
The so-useful 'Restore Previous Session' choice is now missing from my Menu. Help! I have gone through all of the Firefox troubleshooting measures on this page: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/restore-previous-session#w_configuring-session-restore, closed Firefox & reopened it (several times), restarted my computer ... but no joy.
In about:preferences#privacy - History, 'Use custom history' is selected, private browsing is NOT checked, Remember browsing and download history & Remember search and form history ARE checked
Windows 10 desktop, Firefox 80.0.1 (64-bit)
