Firefox doesn't restore session on Mac even if the setting is enabled

I just installed Firefox on my Macbook Air. I have the setting to Restore the last session enabled, but every time I close the browser, it gives me a message warning that I am about to close multiple tabs and then when I close the browser, the session is not restored.

Would appreciate a fix for this. I am currently running Mac OSX 10.14 Beta 5 on the Macbook Air

Thanks

Hi, please try a Refresh but Note that this does more than uninstalling and re-installing does. Normal uninstalling does not remove some preferences which may have become corrupt. Please Refresh but do this 1st: Delete your Cookies and Cache and TEST.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I am new to using a Mac and I didn't know the difference between Quitting and Closing the window. That seems to have sorted everything out.

Thanks again!
