So on Chrome, I usually had split multiple windows on multiple monitors. When I finished for the day I'd close them and when I got back I'd open them (via restore session on Chrome) and all of my windows with all of their tabs would properly open. On firefox only 1 window opens and it is making me lose a lot of saved tabs and information I need. It has been almost a deal breaker for me, even tho I enjoy Mozilla more than Chrome, this is such an important feature. Linux Ubuntu, Mozilla (idk which one, the most basic one)

Hello zyraissoop,

There is a few steps to follow

  1. Press the Open Menu button at the top left.
  2. Click Options (Image 1)
  3. Press 'Restore previous session' button at the top of the page (Image 2)

And if you want click 'Warn you when quitting the browser' to enable warnings
