when I close Firefox (all tabs) and then reopen later, it does not offer the link to restore my prior tabs, it opens on a blank page, not even a home page v 9.0.1

I "upgraded"/ "updated" firefox to version 9.0.1, there are no newer updates offered. I used to be able to restore my prior session upon opening firefox the next time, now it doesn't even offer that link on the opening page. And it does not open a 'homepage' for firefox, just a blank page, with one empty tab/window, this is not an improvement

Hi glivezey,

Try typing about:home into the address bar. Is that the page you are looking for? If so, go to Tools > Options > General and save it as your homepage. If that home page doesn't show up the next time you start Firefox, you should look at How to fix preferences that won't save.

Hopefully this helps!
