My laptop is new. It is set to open the tabs when I open the browser. However when I turn on the following day, all tabs are gone. Prior to this I had pinned the tabs and this too had been lost overnight? Help it is driving me mad!! I am using a Toshiba L755D with Windows 7.

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the file sessionstore.js in the Firefox profile folder.

Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.
