CLEARLY MISSING SOMETHING? 2020. NEED Advanced Way to 'Restore Session' .jsonlz4 and .mozlz4.... NEED AREA TO PUT CODE INTO FIREFOX?.. Sync, HACKS, Restore.
NEED Advanced Way to 'Restore Session' have over 50 unfinished website tabs that failed to load. Have coding for 'recovery.jsonlz4' and '.mozlz4' file. HOWEVER dont see a way to put code into firefox so that it loads the 50+ closed tabs in a restore....
Just want to take an old restore session and make it the current tab restore session. PS this is a modern small annoying problem that has plagued firefox for like 10 years.
.....
MOSTLY OBVIOUS STUFF - Also i'm annoyed at this point..
- I could try and find the many website links in the file code and copy each one into a tab but that seems just as tedious as finding the unfinished websites in a mess of browsing history. Because an internet restore session got messed up.
- the Mozila Firefox: 'recovery.jsonlz4' can sort of be found in your Mozilla 'session restore' folder on your hard drive. The file is often hidden behind nearly useless mozila crash reports that get saved on your hard drive. ALSO The 'recovery.jsonlz4.4qt4qy4q54' whatever numbers have changed names over the years with many updates. The recovery files used to be called sessionstore.json4 PS for developers. An additional issue also seems to be that there are often numbers located behind the file type .json, by adding a bunch of numbers behind the file type the .json firefox information browsing history storage starts getting corrupted. You cant have a .jpg file read .jpg23425134653152`3256.... Thus why is the .json internet tab files doing this?!?!?! Adding a bunch of numbers behind .json isnt more internet security.. It just stops the files you want from working..
- Ultimately did try deleting all my previous internet tab sessions in my desktop folder; to try and allow firefox to see what .json file I wanted it to restore, but the program didn't notice the file I wanted to restore regardless of what i tried naming it. Firefox continues to create a new session restore even when a new session hasn't actually been created, without loading the previous 50+ tabs that I had open instead..
- Theres a new 2019 firefox add on that makes the .json files into '.mozlz4' files. The loading on the application gets bad when theres over 50 tabs that its trying to code out but you can look at the coding better on a different text document. However the firefox add on called mozlz4-edit by Siarhei Kuzeyeu.. SERIOUSLY THOUGH THE FIREFOX ADD ON doesn't have a 'OPEN SOURCE CODE AS A RESTORED INTERNET SESSION.. Your firefox profile is located on both your harddive and your firefox browser, and other important tracking information is located at both. Hackers know this stuff better then the regular computer owner who is the profile.
- Previous Session Restores also get mixed into the mess of internet 'privacy' and sync tabs... Under your firefox profile that is easily forgetable, your information is available to the public as if it wasn't already in like 100 other different other ways.. Anyways under your firefox profile you can now find sync options, although youve probably already synced up your websites to other devices already. Turning sync off isn't really an option and thats another issue. But honestly how hard is it to just put an addition option under your profile showing/giving the option to RESTORE OLD SESSIONS.. This location under your new firefox profile is an ideal location for also being able to put in internet tab code so that you can open your lost tabs, bookmarks(websitemarks), app extensions etc. PS a few folders like this is basically a major part of what the modern day phone is.
- Theres a firefox add on called session boss, from my understanding after using it for 10 minutes, the session boss is just another application that allows more people to check out your internet history without really being a working program that will allow you to easily restore your internet websites.
- I also consider using Brave Browser however this sort of issue isn't solved on that different internet application either..

Okay, I kind of glazed over there because that was so much information. Let me know if this part is correct:
- You have saved one or more older session history files you want to try restoring
- Despite trying various things, Firefox hasn't wanted to use the old file and instead always starts a new session
Can you confirm that the file you are trying to persuade Firefox to open has what you're looking for? I have a page here to decompress .jsonlz4 files:
https://www.jeffersonscher.com/ffu/scrounger.html
After dropping the file onto the page, it should get decompressed into the text box. Then click Scrounge URLs to pull out the session history into a list of clickable URLs. If it's useful, I suggest using Save List to archive it to your system for future reference.
Are the tabs that won't restore listed as being open tabs in open windows?

It's actually very straightforward:
At the main level of your profile folder, when Firefox shuts down normally, is a filed called sessionstore.jsonlz4 which is the go to file Firefox looks for at startup. If that file is not found or is not usable, Firefox will then look in the sessionstore-backups sub-folder. There you may find
- recovery.jsonlz4: the windows and tabs in your currently live Firefox session (or, if Firefox crashed at the last shutdown and is still closed, your last session)
- recovery.baklz4: a backup copy of recovery.jsonlz4
- previous.jsonlz4: the windows and tabs in your last Firefox session
- upgrade.jsonlz4-build_id: the windows and tabs in the Firefox session that was live at the time of a recent automatic update
There should not be any recovery.jsonlz4 files with additional characters tacked on. That is not normal.
If you aren't confident that you are working in the correct profile folder, see: Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
