How do I restore the second to last session (not previous session)?

Hi there-

I had a bunch of windows open and restarted my Mac lion 10.7.2. I was planning on just hitting "Restore Session" to reopen those windows upon restart, but Firefox 6.0.2 immediately crashed. So I had to restart again. Thus, the session I need to restore is the second-to-last session, not the immediately previous session. Is that possible to do?

You can check if that session is still available via History > Restore Previous Session

If not then see if you can restore the sessionstore.js file from the Time Machine from around that time.

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