Recovery.js and recovery.bak have lost my session after many crashes but hopefully previous.js hasn't.

I thought it was sessionstore.bak that would have the previous session.

If you use the Time Machine then try to restore a sessionstore.js file from that backup.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
