Whenver firefox is reloaded, my homepage is the default and my tabs from my previous session are no longer loaded, yet my app tabs are still there. I change these settings in Options > General every time I load up firefox, and to no avail

Just an update; This doesn't seem to just affect the settings of firefox, on YouTube, I have the large player on, to push the sidebar down; this gets reset every time. And before I formatted my hard drive, this never happened.
