I sadly suspect they may have chnaged this in the latest update although i can't fathom why. Although, if firefox ends unexpectedly and you re-open it, it still provides the option to "restore session", it would seem that it no longer provides that option after restart or a computer crash! I've had about 100 tabs open for months for various reasons which i was restoring everytime something went wrong (i was working on clearing the backlog but they were still important). However whenmy computer crashed for the 1st time after the latest update the option was no longer provided when i tried to open firefox again after restart! It was back to scratch with 1 window. I tried again to expermiment and see if it was true by forcefully closing the new window, restarting, but still no option again. Can anyone else try this to see if they get the same? If it's changed then it's either a bug firefox need to fix, or they've changed it delibretly. Although i can't figure out why!!! Is this still true?
