Some tabs are not being restored
I use the "Show windows and tabs from last time" option, but sometimes when I close Firefox, some tabs come back in blank (with the "New Tab" title) and lose their navigation history. This sometimes happens to sites that I've been using for days before restarting my laptop (so it's not a connection issue).
For some sites, I can recreate this consistently (http://www.mangareader.net/). I open the site in a new tab, and after it has loaded completely I restart Firefox; after opening back again that specific tab is blank. Some sites work, some others don't. I can't see any relation between them. It's not related to my internet connection, since I have tried in many different places.

Hello,

, click on help 
and select Troubleshooting Information.

- Click the menu button
- At the top of the Troubleshooting Information page that comes up, you should see a button that says "Copy text to clipboard". Click it.
- Now, go back to your forum post, right-click in the reply box and select Paste from the context menu (or else click inside the reply box and press the Ctrl+V keys) to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
If you need further information about the Troubleshooting information page, please read the article Use the Troubleshooting Information page to help fix Firefox issues.
Thanks in advance for your help!
It sounds that Firefox didn't close properly or otherwise didn't create a correct sessionstore.js file.
In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":
- do not clear the Browsing History
- Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [X] "Clear history when Firefox closes" > Settings
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/remove-recent-browsing-search-and-download-history
You can also check for issues caused by installed extensions.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

Hi,
Firefox closed correctly. I tried several times and have been experiencing this issue for months now.
I'm using the "Firefox will: Remember history" setting.
