i can't restore the last session with all tabs that were open. I accidentally closed the restore tabs and couldn't go back. How can I restore those tabs? Thanks, orly

Firefox now automatically saves open tabs when closing.

  • click Firefox button> History > Restore Previous Session
  • click History > Restore Previous Session, if using the Menu Bar

IMPORTANT:

  • You must close Firefox using Firefox button > Exit/Close (or File > Exit/Close if using the Menu Bar) for this to work properly
  • You must have "Remember my browsing history" selected; click Firrefox button > Options > Privacy (or Tools > Options > Privacy, if using the Menu Bar)
  • You must not clear "Browsing History" when closing Firefox; click Firefox button > Options > Privacy > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Exceptions > [ ] Browsing History (or click Tools > Options > Privacy > [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Exceptions > [ ] Browsing History, if using the Menu Bar)
