On the about:preferences tab "show my windows and tabs from last time" is grayed out. Also, on the home page, there is no "Restore" button.

Hello TomH24, probably you are in permanent private mode.

if you set firefox in Privacy tab > History > Firefox will > Never remember history that means that you are in permanent private mode and that's why you have grayed out the "show my windows and tabs from last time".

try another option, Use custom settings for history OR Remember History.

thank you
