If I leave a webpage up at night it will be closed the next day. How can I fix this?.

Firefox shuts down any web pages if left open overnight. I have tried the refresh.

Whatever page(s) you have up when you walk away should still be there when you return.

Is the page clearing, or is the browser closing on its own?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Do you have any cleanup software or other software that is scheduled to run during the night that might be causing this?
