From time to time, Firefox crashes. When I open Firefox again, my app tabs disappear. The problem is that I had more than 50 app tabs, and I really need them back, as I don't recall some sites' titles or addresses and I can't find them in history. How can I restore or at least make sure that it doesnt' happen again?

If it is not restoreable, is it legal to change Firefox core files?

I've downloaded 9.0.1 and I'll just make few tweaks in the source code...

My problem is not necessarily when Firefox crashes, but when I have two windows open, one with my tabs and one plain one. If I close the one with my tabs first, and then the plain one, when i restart Firefox reloads only the plain window, and I cannot get my tabs back. This has happened to me numerous times and is highly annoying. I don't have 50 tabs like Mirac7, but it still frustrates me. Can't these be linked to my profile, instead of just the particular window I have open at the time?

Actually, my problem was solved with downloading 9.0.1
