IS there a way to save current Tabs and Groups so that they can be reloaded at anytime ?

My Firefox crashes sometimes, and when I start it up again, my groups and tabs that I had are lost, so I have to recreate them from my History window. IS there a way I can Save the groups I have with the tabs inside so that I can retrieve them at some later date. I figure that Firefox does save them each time I close the Browser, so I'm gussing there is a file somewhere that contains this information, if I know what this file is called I could back it up on my regular schedule and retrieve it if I needed to, of course the best alternative would be to have a 'Save Groups" & 'Load Groups' Menu option.

Thanks in advance DayoJ

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data in the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox profile folder.

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