Firefox allways opens with "this is embarrassing." Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs.

Please provide some specific direction for this error message. This message happens each time I attempt to launch Firefox. If I click restore, it will load Firefox. But to do this each time is very bothersome.

Other information on this error page:

This is usually caused by a recently opened web page. You can try: Removing one or more tabs that you think may be causing the problem starting an entirely new browsing session 

 Close     Restore

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.

Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

hello, this should be addressed in a later version of firefox. as a workaround in the meanwhile you could try this: enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash. double-click it and change its value to false.

A likely cause is that you are first closing all Firefox windows and then close the Firefox application.

Some have reported that closing Firefox (Firefox > Quit) while the browser window is still open works for them.

  • Bug 845681 - Closing all windows and quitting Firefox afterwards leads to about:sessionrestore to be shown on next startup
