usually in older version like 28, if I end the process from task manager "firefox.exe" and start back the firefox, it will restore the tabs normally I have opened (web sites I had before I stop the firefox.exe) But now this newer versions, are not giving me that functionality, restore session screen becomes blank and I would loose my opened sessions, I have to use the history to restore the sessions I lost,

Please can someone have a look at this problem, it would be nice option to have to stop the firefox.exe from task manager and able to restore all the sessions again

I have attached an image for your information

Thank you with Regards

Unfortunately the image did not upload, however there are built in session back ups. If these are not working properly we are happy to investigate.

However there is also an addon that helps with session backups called Session Manager.
