Whenever I open FF I get the start page and it asks if I want to restore my previous sessions - this is really annoying me. Your last version saved my sessions and automatically opened these when I started FF - why doesn't it do it now?

Chosen solution

To always open the last set of tabs do this:

  1. Click the orange Firefox button, then select options to open the options window
  2. Go to the General panel
  3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
