The App tabs that I set get erased when I close the browser. How do I get them to stay?

I have set app tabs during a browsing session. The tabs stay in place as I go from site to site. When I close the browser and then re-open it the app tabs are erased and I have to start over again. I have been working around the problem by bookmarking the sites I use often, but that is an inconvenience. Would appreciate any suggestions.

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

Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Browsing History" if Firefox is closed.
