I close the browser and save my tabs. When I next open the browser the tabs were not saved.

After my last Windows update I have been unable to save my tabs once I close FF. I choose the save tabs option on closing the browser but upon reopening it goes to my homepage and the saved tabs are gone.

If you use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox then restoring tabs from the last session ("Save & Quit" or "Show my windows and tabs from last time") doesn't work.

Thanks cor-el but that is not the case unless something is clearing History automatically. I think that's set for a long time (30 days +) prior to clearing the cache. I checked on the off chance that 'today was the day' but I've plenty of cached sites in my History.

I'd suspected something in the Windows Updates but then the problem would be more viral and apparently I'm the only one 'suffering' from it.
