How can I restore a previous session if that option is not highlighted in the History menu?

When I was quitting Firefox last time, Adobe flash tried to open a tab to download something, so I just forced quit. Now, I've just opened Firefox and it didn't restore my previous session as it usually does, and that option is not available in the History menu. I've looked in the profile folder in Finder but I don't think there are any .bak files from before I restarted it today. I had a lot of really important tabs in this session and I really need to get it back!

Try to restore a previous version of the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder via the Time Machine.

You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder
