I had three different windows open in firefox which two of them had about 10 tabs opened for my school work and suddenly firefox crashed and i was not able to restore the tabs when i opened it again. My settings are saved as Never remember history and I am not able to click or select on Restore Previous session. The tabs that were opened were really really important and i need them back.

Thanks :)

Its sad to hear that, but for your info Firefox can only restore all the opened tabs of one instance only.

That is if you have opened more than one instance of firefox, firefox can only remember the last opened tabs and re -open then in one instance only, and that instance will be the last closed firefox.

I would like to recommend you to use Tab groups to organize your tabs than opening a seperate instance. Tab Groups are amazing way to organize tabs.
