session manager crashes almost as soon as FF starts
This error message came up after just a few minutes of FF running. It had just crashed and I rebooted. I'm using XP SP3 and I know I have more tabs than I probably should have opened. Problem is as I work down the line getting rid of them S M is not updating. This time the session that restored was from months ago. I have been bookmarking so all is not lost. If I disable S M ( This Just In: The session/window data is corrupted: undefined(undefined) ). will sessionstore take over? The only problem I had with sessionstore was it only saved one back-up. Tired, I made the mistake of thinking the New Tab that pops up when FF starts was an error, having set FF to open all the previous tabs, I quickly shut it down to save my tabs. knowing no better I killed my only chance of restoring my tabs when I came to my senses and reopened FF to find out if there was anyway to restore my tabs. Ever since I have been looking for a better solution. But it seems that Session Manager is not it. SessionSaver worked, but it's not around anymore. I have a one terabyte drive so memory should not be a problem. So. If I disable Session Manager will sessionstore take over? Otherwise How can I get off this merry go round? Thanks

The sessionstore.js file is only present when Firefox is closed. The sessionstore.js file is created from recovery.js when you close Firefox and is removed and copied to previous.js when you start Firefox to make is possible to restore the session at any time.
Backup the session files in the sessionstore-backups folder in the Firefox Profile Folder to make sure not to lose possible important session data. Do NOT close Firefox when Firefox is already running.
You will normally find these files in the sessionstore-backups folder:
previous.js (cleanBackup: copy of sessionstore.js from previous session that was loaded successfully) recovery.js (latest version of the sessionstore written during runtime) recovery.bak (previous version of the sessionstore written during runtime) upgrade.js-<build_id> (backup created during an upgrade of Firefox)
You can copy a file from the sessionstore-backups folder to the main profile and rename the file to sessionstore.js to replace the current file (make a backup copy of the current sessionstore.js).

There is no sessionstore. The files that are there seem to be from Session Manager. If I delete them I will loose my tabs is my understanding. I'm not sure if the files I'm looking at are from Session Manager anyway. These are the files I suspect: sessionCheckpoints.json sessionmanager_log.txt storage.sqlite webappsstore.sqlite webappsstore.sqlite-shm webappsstore.sqlite-wal

Update Avast. If there is still a problem, disable it.
I disabled the 3 Web shields and the problem is still there. FF crashed again. Tabs I close are back again. At this rate I will never reduce the number of tabs I have open. If I remove Session Manager will sessionstore start up?

Was Avast disabled?
FF crashed again.
Please post the newest reports.
I misspoke When I said Session Manager "crashes". I didn't realize until a few moments ago. The problem is Session Manager reports an "out of memory" error trying to save my tabs. Firefox crashing is not what I'm concerned about. I've given up on that problem a long time ago. I have sent the Info you requested. If I had sessionstore back I think the "out of memory" error would resolve. As I said I had wished that sessionstore would have create two or three backups. I.E. bac1, bac2, bac3 etc. I would never have looked at Session Manager if that had been the case. When I ruined the bac1, I could have gone to bac2. SessionSaver had several back ups which made it rather idiot proof. By idiot I mean me. So know what I really want is to get rid of Session Manager without loosing my tabs and go back to sessionstore. bp-44b980e7-d29b-453f-88cf-9d9d42161215

Disable Avast.
I still want to get rid of Session Manager. I'm on 50.1.0 already and Disabling Avast did not help.

What is the file size of the current sessionstore.js file?
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
- Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory:
Windows: Show Folder; Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
When sessionstore.js is deleted you lose pinned tabs and open tabs and you will have to recreate them, so if necessary make a note or bookmark them (e.g. use bookmark all tabs).
I do not have sessionstore.js. Session Manager replaces it with something of theirs. I'm trying to get rid of Session Manager without loosing my tabs.

So, can I just remove Session Manager and will FF then make a sessionstore.js file the next time FF closes? It looks like I have to remove Session Manager while FF is running. I was under the impression that all my sessionstore files would go with Session Manager, scary! I guess not. I have copied the Profile folder to My Documents/FF Session for safe keeping. Is there a way to read the the sessionstore files?
Session Manager is a restartless extension and thus can be enabled or disabled on the fly.
I have not crashed or restarted FireFox I disabled Session Manager and the problem seems to be gone . Thanks for pointing out that there now More than one back-up. Of course there may have been more all along that I didn't know about. When I asked for help originally all I was told is to use sessionstore.bac. So unfortunately the other sessions are most likely gone forever but I'm going to look for back-ups I may have saved at the time. Are there any forums writing tutorials? I'd like to lend a hand. I'll mark this as solved.
