firefox reset without user request
Hey,
Background information: I have been using firefox for years. I had FF in this particular machine set up and stabilized before last version update. System has been closed and opened several times as well.
My setup had 5 permanent tabs and varying amount of normal tabs. (not over 20). Recently my system crashed with BSOD 0x0000008E, first parameter c0000005, accompanied by a mention of win32k.sys. I had FF open at the time BSOD occur.
After rebooting i tested my hardware as i was able, did find no problems. I ran additional malware tests which found no threats.
However, when i started FF first time after system crash, it had no pinned stationary tabs left nor didn't it have any automatic or manual session restore option available. In settings->general the startup was changed from previous tabs to blank page. FF history however does contain full history, including the page i opened about 1 minute before system crash. No losses in plug-in or add-on list. also the favorites and history are in place.
software versions: Windows XP Professional SP3 with latest updates. Mozilla Firefox 29.0.1 (euballot 1.1)
latest added addons: Firebug 1.12.8 and FirePHP 0.7.4 (both added today, about 3 hours before windows crashed)
Question: Why did FF loose it's stationary pinned tabs during system crash? Arent they permanent until user decides to unpin them? Might those latest additions i've added to browser cause FF strange behavior or even destabilize win XP?
thanx in advance, tav

If a programs data file is corrupted, a good program may start over. Do you have any kind of backups?
What file could be corrupted?
For last 24 hours my windows has been stable. I do have full system backups created regularly every month. System crashed only once and FF lost some of it's settings during system crash. Today i was able to restore my session i closed yesterday, including all pinned and unpinned tabs.
huh.. now what?

When a computer shuts down without warning, a power failure for example, any files that were being accessed can have the data corrupted. Any data in the computers RAM would not be saved. Anything not saved would gone.
This happens if there is a problem with the sessionstore.js file in the profile folder and that crashed session hasn't been saved or if the file got corrupted otherwise.
