Restoring recently closed windows doesn't work

After installing the new version 106.01, restoring recently closed windows in History doesn't work even though it is highlighted as being active, but nothing shows or happens when pointing at and clicking on "Recently Closed Tabs".

(I accidently closed one of my two windows and therefore lost all my tabs.) (I know I can restore the tabs one by one, but that will be a huge task.

So what can I do to restore my lost Firefox window?

Thanks in advance. Jens Giertsen Denmark

This is the issue when closing multiple Browsers the last one closed is the save session.You will have to rebuild them again or go through the firefox help link to see if they work better.

You will have to rebuild them if the help links don't work to find them. Closing the last browser window will save for that last browser only.
