Hi I have recently realised that when I have saved and quited, it does not open the saved session.

In otherwords, I use firefox and have many tabs opened, then when I will click to close, a message appears saying to save, save and quit etc... I choose to save it (the session) BUT when I click on the firefox again (to open it), the saved session that I saved does not appear?

Why is this?

Can you please tell me

Thank you

Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox.

I now in FF6.0.2 have to click History->Restore last session every time I restart my computer in order to get my windows and tabs the way I left them in FF. Can't remember that I had to that before?!?
