I have read many of forum threats of how to configure opening last session each time browser opens. None of them works.

I want to have all same tabs from the last session each time I open Firefox again. It is very normal behavior in our days. Why should I close them if I work in several of them?

So, this option is not included in standard Firefox configuration. I see option "Preferences->Startup->Restore last session". I check this option, turning of Firefox. Then trying to open some tabs, closing Firefox, opening again and no tabs left! So no idea what this option is for, because it doesn't restoring opened tabs in the last session.

How to make it work? It would be excellent!

Hello sukys.gediminas,

Would you please take a look at this article and scroll down to the
section "Troubleshooting" - does any of it apply to your situation ?

On Mac things can be more complicated because you can close all open windows, but keep Firefox running with the menu bar visible or minimized to the Doc.

Make sure you close Firefox via "Firefox > Quit Firefox" to close Firefox with all open windows, otherwise you can check "History -> Recently Closed Tabs/Windows".
