The "forget button" considers "automatic session restore" as a "new browsing" ?

Firefox just crashed and when I restarted it, I saw the "forget button" as new feature. After making sure that I selected "forget the last : 5 min", I decided to click on "forget" to test and then it closed all my 50 firefox windows and cleared all the history.

The tabs that I opened 1 year ago just disappeared! was it not supposed to clear only the last 5 minutes history? Why not asking a confirmation before closing so many tabs?

Please let me know if I can restore my tabs. I really need to restore them.

Thanks

Here's the KnowledgeBase article about what the Forget button does. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/forget-button-quickly-delete-your-browsing-history

4. Firefox will clear history and cookies from the specified time frame, close your open tabs and relaunch a new, clean window.

Open your Profile folder [Help > Troubleshooting Information --> Show Folder] and then open the sessionstore-backups folder to see the dates of the backup files in there. Report back here.

The directory sessionstore-backups contains only 2 files: recovery.bak and recovery.js.

Recovery.bak is empty, and recovery.js contains very few number of lines.
