I have a Dell laptop running Windows XP version 5.1 service pack 3. I downloaded Firefox version 4 and I no longer get an option to save and quit upon exit. How do I restore this feature?

One change in Firefox 4 is to by default stop Firefox displaying the warning message, but it can be turned back on by changing some preferences.

  1. Type about:config into the location bar and press enter
  2. Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
  3. Locate the preference browser.tabs.warnOnClose, if its value is set to false, double-click on it to change its value to true
  4. Repeat this for these 3 preferences browser.warnOnQuit, browser.warnOnRestart and browser.showQuitWarning

It did not work. I still get no option to save and quit when I exit firefox. Also, browser.warnonQuit and browser.warnonRestart is not a listed preference.
