Restore Previous Session still works, Recently Closed Tabs works, and Recently Closed Windows is not grayed out, but it won't display the drop down list of windows. I have tried restarting Firefox in safe mode, but it made no difference, and all my settings in about:config seem to be correct.

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

Rename (or 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 and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
