The tabs I had used to be listed in the, "Well, this is embarrassing..." box before I clicked on the "restore" button, but now, the only tabs it shows are 2 blank tabs, and when I click on "restore" it doesn't work. It gives me the same message I get when I'm offline and trying to refresh a tab. It worked up 'til today and nothing changed. I have version 2.6.21.

It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

Delete the files sessionstore.js [2] and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).
