Nice. I lost everything because Mozilla doesn't support legacy plugins. I just restart my browser and after that I saw what it no longer support Session Manager plugin (sessionmanager.mozdev.org). And It was switched off. A N D F F L O S T A L L M Y S A V E D S E S S I O N S.

So before changing my browser to chrome for example, I have only one question - how to recover my saved sessions?

Hi,

The first step is to find your session files. Type "about:profiles" in the address bar. You should see something that says, "this is the profile in use". In the table underneath that, find the "root directory" entry, and choose "open folder". In the Explorer window that appears, find the "sessions" directory and open it. Inside of there, you should see a file for each session you have saved. Next, go to this website: https://www.jeffersonscher.com/res/scrounger.html , and drag the session file you want to restore onto the text box on that page. Next, you can either:

1. Choose "scrounge URLs" to see a table of the sites you had open. 2. Choose "save uncompressed JSON" to get a file that you can use to open your session in Firefox.

Note that you may have to rename the sessionstore-backups folder temporarily to make Firefox use an uncompressed sessionstore.js file you placed at the main level in the profile folder.
