How do I restore my last session? I'm only getting my home page, not all of the tabs I had open.

I've always been able to shut down my computer with confidence, because when I start up again, Firefox always says "Oops, this is embarrassing...etc." and restores all of my open tabs. Last night I had many tabs open, but shut down Firefox. Now this morning I only get my home page, not the restore notice. Is there a way I can go into the History to activate the restore? Or some other solution?

Have you tried clicking History on the Menu Bar and selecting 'Restore Previous Session'?

Firefox default now is to save your session when you close

Hi VTDBA,

Thanks for your answer. It sounds great, but it doesn't seem to work for me. I'm using v 3.6.7 and under History on the Menu Bar there is no "Restore Previous Session". I tried downloading the newer version of FF, but for some reason it deleted all my Roboform entries, so I went back to the earlier version. Any other way I can relaunch my previous session?

Thanks again.

The "Restore Previous Session" feature is only available in Firefox 4 and not in Firefox 3.6.x

If you get that 'Oops' page then that means that Firefox has crashed or didn't close properly the previous time. Session Restore will try to reopen the pages from the previous session in that case.

See "Hang at exit":

If you immediately shutdown Windows after closing Firefox then try to give Firefox a bit more time or check the Task Manager to see if the Firefox process and the plugin-container process are terminated.

You can also use:

  • Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time"
