Even with "ask to save tabs" unchecked, Firefox keeps asking to save tabs

Firefox 32.0 for Linux.

The option "warn me when closing multiple tabs" is UNchecked in my preferences, but every time I close multiple tabs Firefox asks "Do you want Firefox to save your tabs for the next time".

I then check "do not ask next time", and when I restart the browser, the "warn me when closing multiple tabs" is still UNchecked, however Firefox still asks to save tabs.

Also, in my about:config the browser.tabs.warnOnClose shows "false". However, Firefox does not seem to respect that.

So Firefox actually remembers my settings, but does the opposite?

How can I get Firefox to respect the settings and disable that tab-closing warning message?

Ok, by turning browser.warnOnQuit to 'false', now it doesn't show that warning. No idea how warnOnQuit got set to 'true' in the first place though...

The other 2 options were also set to 'true' but didn't seem to be the problem.

Thank you, it works perfectly now.

browser.warnOnQuit is true by default, so that value shouldn't be a surprise. When you have toggled it to false then it should now appear bold (user set).
