Hello,

My all open tabs are gone after reopening browser. I always have "remember tabs from previous session" checked in Firefox settings, but it started not to work.

How can I fix it. I tried refresh browser to factory settings but it didn`t help.

Please help Regards Marcin

Chosen solution

In case you use "Clear history when Firefox closes".

  • do not clear the Browsing History
  • clearing "Site Preferences" clears exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, and software installation and exception for password and other website specific data
  • clearing "Cookies" will remove all selected cookies including cookies with an allow exception you may want to keep, you can use "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed" instead

I think it works. I will have to work a few days after this change.
