Windows 7 BSOD --> FF 29.0.1 tabs lost

I got a Windows 7 BSOD (some malfunctioning USB driver) but when I restart my computer and launch FF 29.0.1 again I get one tab with my homepage open. I don't even get an "embarrassing" screen.

Firstly, I think I should get an embarrassing screen to restore my previous session?

Secondly, can FF not save sessions (once every few minutes) and restore that (similar to what we have in MS Office programs)?

Let me know if this is possible by tweaking something on my end, or this is in the feature pipeline...

Hi fireforever We are seeing an issue with session restore. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/.../releasenotes/

There is a feature to "Remember tabs from last time" on the Options menu for Firefox that will remember this.

The other trick is to pull up the "about:sessionrestore" page manually if this happens.
