For the past few days, every time I open Firefox I get "Well, this is embarrassing! Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. I am on version 20.0 on an IMac with Mountain Lion. I do not want to recover previous windows or tabs. I always close everything and quit Firefox when I am done using it. If I choose to select "close", then I get a blank scene and not my home page. If I "restore" I get whatever is listed, but I really don't want it. I want my home page. Is there a fix for this problem?

A possible cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.

Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.

Thanks for your information. I will quit Firefox instead of closing the windows from now on or until the bug is fixed.
