How to set multiple home pages, the option is gone (replaced my hard drive and had to reinstall firefox) This version seems to only offer tabs, not pages?
My old version of Firefox had the option for me to set multiple home pages. My hard drive recently failed and had to be replaced, so I had to install the newest version of Firefox. The only option I see when I go to tools, options, general is to set the one home page. (and maybe tabs) I would like to open several of the same pages every time I open my Firefox. Does anyone know how to get this back, or which version had this feature so I can downgrade to that particular version? Also, I was wondering if there is a way to get the bookmarks I had on the old version back. I think they are lost forever, but if anyone knows, I would be thankful. I do still have the old hard drive, but the way it failed was actually when you tried to open any browser, the hard drive would go and blue screen, this is why the old hard drive had to be replaced. Thanks. :)

So you mean you want to open new windows with the same page when you open Firefox?
Set more than one website as your home page should help if you want to open multiple pages when you open Firefox.
As for recovering your bookmarks, you can try to plug that hard drive into a working computer, and then read Recover important data from an old profile to copy your bookmarks from it. However, if it is failing you may not be able to do that.
If all the pages are opened in tabs then you should see a Use Current Pages item in the General tab.
- Firefox/Tools > Options > general
This will only work for tabs and not for windows.
Firefox can remember which tabs and windows are open and restore them automatically if you use File > Exit to close Firefox.
- Firefox/Tools > Options > General > Startup: When Firefox Starts:
- Show my windows and tabs from last time
