In Firefox 4 you can always restore the previous session via Firefox > History > Restore Previous Session


You can set the warn prefs on the about:config page to true via the right-click context menu or toggle with a double left-click.

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Restore previous session is disabled. How can I enable that one?
