Okay, so basically I have more than 1 window(s) in Firefox open, and when I close Firefox down only one of the windows is saved. I have been trying to use tab groups, and so far it won't save onto Firefox so when I open Firefox later I get both my windows open.

Thanks!

Hi,

You can try pressing Ctrl' + '' (single quote) to check if any tab groups are present in the background. Please note that the session restore of Firefox would also restore any of the windows that were open when closing the previous session.

Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar and close all open windows at once.

If you accidentally closed a window then use History > Recently Closed Windows to reopen that window.

Do not use "Clear history when Firefox closes" to clear the "Browsing History".
