I usually just cold shutdown my PC. After I start again and open firefox its restores my previous tabs. The page which asks if I wish to restore previous session it not shown, its just opens my last tabs. I have disabled in preferences "restore previous sessions" and I have set these to false in about:config: browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash false browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once false browser.sessionstore.resuming_after_os_restart false

What can I do?? OS is xubuntu 18.04.

You forgot one pref: browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes = 0

That way you always get the about:sessionrestore page to restore the session or start a new session when you start Firefox after a crash.
