Tabs and window restore only restored one of many open windows from last session. I hate this!!
Tab and window restoration has FAILED after version 13.01 installation! Out of 7 windows open with multiple tabs, only ONE BROWSER WINDOW OPENED with NO reference to what happened to the normal session that had been in the previous version of FF. I've read about this and I DON'T LIKE IT. It is reverse engineering. WHY would you scrap someone's research for the sake of making your browser open more quickly? DAMMIT MAN I don't have time to study a browser. I may not endure this version! I don't see a way out of this ff trap, other than go to previous version which is always a bitch. Dammit!

You need to 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 to close Firefox with all open windows at once. Otherwise only the last closed window will be restored. If this did happen then check History > Recently Closed Windows to see if any are listed (default is 3).
I have the same problem, except selecting window doesn't help. I have my sessionstore.js and .bak. When I open them I see all tabs that I used but FF is not using them. Is there a way I can force FF to use saved sessionstore.js or my valuable tabs and regions are lost?
Did you look in "History > Restore Previous Session" or "Recently closed Tabs/Windows" after you've placed the sessionstore.js file in the Firefox Profile Folder?

No luck.
After restoring sessionstore.js I did look in "History > Restore Previous Session" and "Recently closed Tabs/Windows". I also checked forum post you recommended but it doesn't work. FF 13.01 broke session management and I can't restore my groups and tabs. sessionstore is about 770KB in size and I see data about tabs and groups but FF 13.01 is ignoring it.
