The memory leaks are getting worse and worse, and now the top bar of the browser is so tiny, every time I try to double-click up there to minimize the screen, a tab opens. I hate tabs, I don't want them opening for no reason. Why would you remove the space to double-click?

To get the title bar back, View menu -> Toolbars -> select Customize. In the lower-left corner, click on the 'Title Bar' button. Exit Customize.

Thank you. I am so sick of this new version, at least now this problem is fixed. Now I have to figure out why it never saves the previous windows as it used to, especially now since the leaks are so bad they freeze my computer.

Make sure to close (Quit) the Firefox application while the windows are still open. If you first close open windows then you need to check "History > Recently Closed Tabs/Windows" to see if there are windows to restore.

You can check browser.sessionstore.* prefs including browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash on the about:config page and reset browser.sessionstore prefs that are user set (bold) via the right-click context menu to the default value to make sure that Session Restore is enabled and working properly.
