Firefox never remembers where I left off even though I have the option checked to do this when I get a computer crash or MS update runs ....... Why?

I am used to firefox restoring my previous session if I get a computer crash or the computer reboots when MS Update runs. But this computer always starts a new session. Why? I have the option checked to restore previous session under General tab "Show my windows and tabs from last time".

I suspect this is because when FF launches I am not using the :default: session but I pick from a list. If this is the case, how to I make my picked session the default one?

It is very annoying not having FF recover all my previously opened tabs. Other computers that I have these feature works fine
