Hi! How can i restore my not previous session but the one before that? Firefox crashed so I restoring previous session only brings up the homepage. I already read an article about this but it was not helpful, on the contrary. It talked about a "profile folder" which doesn't exist in the Mozilla folder. Then it talked about sessionrestore.js or something of sorts and nothing like that is in the folder either. I can't deal with firefox much longer, it crashes and loses important tabs cause they can't be recovered.

To find you profile folder, see: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data Profiilit - kirjanmerkkien, salasanojen ja muiden käyttäjätietojen säilö (in Finnish)

If you are thinking about manually copying session data files and restoring them later, please notice that there's an easier way, using an add-on such as https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/session-boss/
