Why is it all browsers seem to think that there is nothing I want more than for them to try to restore my last session? None of them have a switch to turn this behavior off.

I would very much not like to be pestted how it is "embarrassing" that you cannot find a page to open. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE PAGE!!!!

I do not ever want to see that useless "Embarrassed" message again, ever!

How to turn it off?

Thank You Nick

Hi Nick, are you saying you don't want Firefox to automatically recover your last session after a crash, or you don't want it to bother you if it fails to recover it, just show your home page?

I think you can turn off crash recovery using the following setting, but I haven't tested it myself:

(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.

(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste sess and pause while the list is filtered

(3) Double-click the browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash preference to switch the value from true to false
